Nope, not Darrell Hammond, question says "who was the last castmember(s) of the show to hold the title of 'Longest tenured current castmember' prior to Kenan?" Not 'Who is second most-tenured of all-time'.

Tim Meadows - 10 seasons
Meadows left on May 20, 2000, which is the Season 25 finale after 10 seasons, in which at the time of his departure, he was the show's longest-tenured cast member (though his record has since been surpassed by Darrell Hammond and Kenan Thompson) and since has starred in two shows, The Michael Richards Show and Leap of Faith. Meadows starred in The Ladies Man, a film based on his SNL character Leon Phelps. He also appeared in the film Mean Girls.

Hi, sorry for not getting back sooner, I notice no one got it right, so I'll give the answer, it's Seth Meyers, he was on the show from 2001 to 2014, making him the longest tenured castmember at the time, and when he left, Kenan Thompson became the longest tenured castmember.
