Former Florida quarterback Jalen Kitna reportedly will proceed his profession within the American Athletic Convention as he appears to return to soccer from a hiatus stemming from since-dismissed felony expenses.
Kitna, the son of ex-NFL QB Jon Kitna, has been admitted into UAB and can make an official go to to this system on Wednesday, ESPN reported Saturday. Kitna’s determination comes roughly six months after the redshirt sophomore agreed to a plea deal that dropped 5 expenses linked to his November 2022 arrest for allegedly possessing baby pornography.
“I acknowledge that I made naive choices that I deeply remorse and have since discovered from,” Kitna mentioned in an announcement to ESPN. “In consequence, I took duty by pleading no-contest to second-degree misdemeanor disorderly conduct expenses associated to these choices.”
Again in July, Kitna plead no contest to 2 counts of disorderly conduct after going through three felony counts of possession of kid pornography and two felony counts of distribution of kid exploitation materials, leading to a lesser cost of one-year probation and no jail time.
Kitna was dismissed from the Florida workforce on Dec. 2, 2022, two days after expenses have been initially filed in opposition to him in Alachua County, Fla.

Kitna now seeks a contemporary begin beneath one other former NFL quarterback in Blazers coach Trent Dilfer, who compiled a 4–8 document in his first season at UAB in 2023.
A 2021 Florida commit, Kitna performed in simply 4 video games throughout his redshirt freshman season in 2022, recording 181 passing yards and one landing.
