Cobras
Career
2000
Bo Kelly was drafted by
the Cobras in the 12th round of the expansion draft, joining his former
defensive coordinator from Arizona, Cobras head coach Doug Kay. He
was a consistent contributor in Carolina’s first few games, catching a
pass and recovering a fumble vs. Florida, rushing for two touchdowns at
Los Angeles, making four tackles and recovering another fumble vs. Orlando
and grabbing three passes for 26 yards at Tampa Bay. Kelly stepped
into the spotlight at Florida after Marrio Grier was injured on the first
play of the game, and rushed for a career-high 38 yards on 11 carries.
He turned in 40 all-purpose yards in his first start vs. Nashville, and
had a sack, a fumble recovery and a rushing touchdown in the Cobras’ near-upset
of Orlando. Kelly had his best game of the season against Houston,
rushing for 30 yards and two touchdowns, including a fourth quarter 24-yarder,
breaking up a pass and making a vital block on Adrian Lunsford’s kick return
touchdown. He finished the season as the Cobras’ second leading rusher
with 116 yards, and his seven rushing touchdowns tied him for the team
lead.
