WATCH: NFL Captains Series – Jason Kennedy


Published on Tuesday, June 2, 2015

Edition Seven of the NFL Captains Series, featuring Heidelberg’s Jason Kennedy.

Throughout the 2015 season, Brad Emmett from NFL Media will chat with the captain from each NFL senior club.

The seventh edition of the series features Heidelberg captain Jason Kennedy.

A three-time Heidelberg premiership player, Kennedy has long been one of the league’s premier defenders.

He assumed Heidelberg’s captaincy from club legend Blair Harvey and in 2014 led the Tigers to their 10th grand final appearance in 11 years.

In 2015 he was named captain of the NFL’s representative team, after serving as a deputy to Ryan Jackson a year earlier.

Watch below as Kennedy discusses his time as a junior with the Murray Bushrangers, being a member of Heidelberg’s dominant era and taking over the captaincy from one of Heidelberg’s greatest leaders.
