FAMU Standout Bohler Ready to Shine at 2025 Hula Bowl

ORLANDO, Fla. — All eyes will be on Florida A&M cornerback Kendall Bohler as he prepares to take the field at the 2025 Hula Bowl this Saturday at FBC Mortgage Stadium. The All-SWAC Second Team selection enters the prestigious all-star game, looking to build on an impressive senior campaign that has already caught the attention of NFL scouts.

Bohler, who earned a spot on Bruce Feldman's coveted Freak List and was named to both the Reese's Senior Bowl and East-West Shrine Bowl watch lists, brings a dynamic presence to the secondary. His selection to the Hula Bowl comes as no surprise after a stellar season where he recorded 33 tackles, four pass breakups, and three tackles for loss.

His versatility was on full display throughout the 2023 season, highlighted by a commanding performance against Norfolk State, where he recorded a season-high seven tackles. His game-changing interception against Jackson State further demonstrated his playmaking abilities.

The Hula Bowl will be a crucial stepping stone for Bohler, who was also named a semifinalist for the prestigious Aeneas Williams Award. With the HBCU Legacy Bowl also on his horizon, this weekend's performance could significantly impact his draft stock as April approaches.

Saturday's game will feature Bohler alongside other top prospects from across the country, providing a perfect platform for the FAMU standout to demonstrate why he's considered one of the premier defensive backs in this year's draft class. His ability to maintain tight coverage and make plays on the ball will be tested against some of college football's most talented receivers.

The matchup serves as more than just another all-star game for Bohler – it's an opportunity to continue the strong tradition of HBCU players making their mark in professional football. With his track record of consistent performance and big-game capability, all signs point to Bohler being ready for the moment.

The 2025 Hula Bowl kicks off at noon Eastern on Saturday, January 11, at FBC Mortgage Stadium in Orlando, Florida, where Bohler will look to add another chapter to his already impressive football journey.
