New Orleans VooDoo

After failing to make the Chicago Bears following their mini-camp, Kennedy was assigned to the New Orleans VooDoo of the Arena Football League. In his first week with the team, he beat out fellow rookie, Brian Hudson, to become the VooDoo starting quarterback. Kennedy started the final seven games for the VooDoo, leading them to a 1–6 recording during that time. In September 2014, the VooDoo picked up Kennedy's rookie option to retain him for the 2015 season.

Tampa Bay Storm

On December 7, 2015, Kennedy was assigned to the Tampa Bay Storm.
