Vincent DiLeo Signs for 2026

The Kentucky Barrels are pleased to announce the signing of Vincent DiLeo to their 2026 roster!  

With proven versatility and a gritty, all-around skill set, DiLeo brings a unique edge that strengthens the Barrels’ lineup on both sides of the ball.

DiLeo comes to Kentucky after a standout run in arena football, where he’s excelled as both a linebacker and fullback. Most recently, he starred for the Southwest Kansas Storm in AF1, earning recognition for his ability to make impact plays in pivotal moments. His background includes a decorated collegiate career at Delaware Valley University- where he helped lead his team to multiple conference championships. 

What sets DiLeo apart is his two-way capability. He’s shown he can deliver blows on defense, carry the load on offense, and help shift momentum with big plays. That flexibility will be especially valuable as Kentucky builds its identity in its inaugural season. 

The Barrels remain active in roster development and will host open tryouts on October 18, 2025. Keep up with new signing announcements and offseason updates on Instagram and Facebook!
