Kennedy Urlacher, a Class of 2024 three-star safety out of Chandler High School in Chandler, Arizona, announced that he will announce his commitment decision on Monday at 6 p.m., and Penn State has made six final six.

Penn State is in the running with Illinois, Kansas State, Miami, Notre Dame, and TCU for Urlacher (6-foot-0, 190 pounds) is the No. 13 player in Arizona, the No. 56 safety, and the No. 612 player nationally, according to 247Sports Composite Rankings.

Kennedy’s father is former Chicago Bears Hall of Fame linebacker Brian Urlacher.

Urlacher, like his father plays with physicality, has tenacity, and can make big plays in the secondary, and a quintessential leader.

All the major recruiting sites expect Urlacher to commit to Notre Dame on Monday, however, he still plans on visiting Penn State at some point, so a flip in the future is not out of the question.

Penn State would have Kenneth Woseley, Jon Mitchell, Antoine Belgrave-Shorter, and Urlacher in its defensive back room in the 2024 recruiting class with his commitment to the school.
