Wearing jersey number 17, Deng hails from Tokio, North Dakota, and has established himself as a talented wide receiver for the team. While pursuing a degree in Kinesiology, he has already made notable contributions to the UND football squad. Throughout his early collegiate career, Deng has played in 18 career games but played in 14 in 2025, demonstrating his skill and consistency by scoring 5 career touchdowns. One of his most memorable performances came during the game against Tennessee Tech (TTU) in 2025, where he achieved his longest reception of 35 yards, showcasing his ability to make impactful plays on the field. As he continues to develop his skills and gain experience, Deng Deng has a bright future for UND Football.
