Kennedy Nkeyasen (born April 7, 1978 in Ghana, Africa) is a free safety (converted from running back) playing for the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League.
Nkeyasen was drafted out of college by Saskatchewan (18th overall) in 1999. The CFL awarded him non-import status because he played his high school football at Thom Collegiate in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. Only offensive lineman Gene Makowsky has played more games for Saskatchewan than Nkeyasen. He attended college at Idaho State University.
Nkeyasen missed most of the 2007 CFL season due to an achilles tendon injury suffered in a pre-season game.[1][2]

In June of 2008, Kennedy accepted a Public Relations position with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
