Jahmal Kennedy has been with the WSFA 12 Sports team since February 2022, but is not new to the area. A native of Mobile, Jahmal attended Troy University where he studied Broadcast Journalism with a minor in communication. After graduating college, Jahmal accepted a position as a digital content producer with WSFA back in 2017. Jahmal worked as a member of the digital team for three years, where in 2020 he left for an on-air job in Fargo, North Dakota.

Jahmal spent the next 18 months in the upper Midwest covering new sports like hockey and tennis and golf while breaking into the on-air side of the business. He enjoyed new adventures like driving through several feet of snow, shoveling several inches of snow off of his car, living in subzero temperatures, and learning to ice skate!

Jahmal returned home to his native state of Alabama to join Rosie Langello as the newly-formed sports team. As a former athlete, Jahmal enjoys watching and playing sports in his free time. He also enjoys playing video games, working out and watching movies.
