Dennis played at Georgia Tech from 2011 to 2014, where he was a reserve defensive back before transitioning to wide receiver.
Although he only caught one pass in his career in Tech's triple option offense, his biggest contribution was his play on special teams.
[1] After his playing career ended, Dennis got a job at Ohio State in 2015 as an intern, where his father-in-law Urban Meyer was coaching.
He has acknowledged that his connection to Meyer may have played a significant part in the beginning of his career at Ohio State, but his work ethic was praised by Meyer's successor Ryan Day and former players such as Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow.
In his role as the senior quality control coach, Dennis received praise from Ohio State quarterbacks and Heisman Trophy finalists Dwayne Haskins and Justin Fields for his assistance in their stellar 2018 and 2019 seasons.
