Kenyon began his career with Everton before being released in the summer of 2008 and he then joined non-league Chorley.[4] Kenyon then joined Lancaster City in the summer of 2009 before signing for Conference Premier side Stockport County in May 2012.[5] After suffering relegation with County in 2012–13 he joined League Two side Morecambe on 27 June 2013.[6]

He made his Football League debut on 10 August 2013 in a 1–1 draw with Torquay United.[7] He signed a new contract in February 2014 which runs through to June 2016.[8] On 28 June 2016 Kenyon signed a new 12-month deal with the club.[9] In July 2019 he signed a new one-year contract with Morecambe.[10]

Morecambe did not renew Kenyon's contract, making him a free agent in 2021. Scunthorpe United then signed him on a one-year deal.[11]
