Based on some research, I believe you’ll see some changes after the next rankings update by Prep Redzone. For now, let’s look at where things stand in the 2022 New Jersey Football Prospect Rankings.
Today we look at New Jersey’s Top 2022 prospects from No. 35 to No. 26.
No. 35 JoJo Bermudez JoJo Bermudez 5'10" | WR Cedar Creek | 2022 State NJ Ι 5-10 Ι Wide Receiver Ι Cedar Creek
Bermudez will definitely rise in the updated rankings. The Rutgers commit caught 35 passes for 486 yards and two touchdowns last season. He also rushed 37 times for 410 yards and five touchdowns. It’s not much he can’t do on the football field.
No. 34 Tyler Ochojski Tyler Ochojski 6'2" | DL Freehold Boro | 2022 NJ Ι 6-2 Ι Defensive Lineman Ι Freehold Boro
Ochojski made 56.5 total tackles and sacked the quarterback nine times during the 2020 season. He is getting interest from Yale and Penn.
No. 33 Alex Benitez Alex Benitez 5'8" | QB Montgomery | 2022 NJ Ι 5-8 Ι Running Back Ι Montgomery
Benitez did a little of everything for his team last season. He completed 39-out-of-91 passes for 666 yards, five touchdowns, and five interceptions. Benitez added 490 yards and seven touchdowns on 99 carries too. He still had enough energy on defense to make 55 total tackles. Now that’s an athlete!
No. 32 Turner Inge Turner Inge 5'11" | DB Williamstown | 2022 NJ Ι 5-11 Ι Defensive Back Ι Williamstown
Inge will be switched to the linebacker position when the next rankings come out. He was responsible for 63 total tackles last season. He also carried the football 96 times for 545 yards and nine touchdowns.
No. 31 Ryan Butler Ryan Butler 5'11" | 205 lbs | RB Bergen Catholic | 2022 State NJ Ι 5-11 Ι Running Back Ι Bergen Catholic
Butler committed to Princeton on Mar. 7. He had double-digit offers that included Air Force, Army, Columbia, and Dartmouth. Butler did damage both running and catching the football. He ran 129 times for 865 yards and 12 touchdowns and caught 19 passes for 309 yards and three touchdowns last season.
No. 30 Elijah Steward Elijah Steward 6'0" | 165 lbs | WR Holy Spirit | 2022 State NJ Ι 6-0 Ι Wide Receiver Ι Holy Spirit

No. 29 Ι Dominic Brogna Dominic Brogna 6'2" | DL Donovan Catholic | 2022 State NJ Ι 6-2 Ι Defensive Lineman Ι Donovan Catholic

No. 28 Jimel Quann Jimel Quann 6'0" | LB Winslow | 2022 State NJ Ι 6-0 Ι Running Back Ι Winslow
Quann actually did more on defense than offense last season. He carried the football 36 times for 204 yards and four touchdowns last season. Defensively, he made 56 total tackles (36 solos).
No. 27 Christian LeBrun Christian LeBrun 6'1" | DB St. Peter's Prep | 2022 State NJ Ι 6-1 Ι Defensive Back Ι St. Peter’s Prep
Lebrun made 26 total tackles and intercepted one pass last season for SPP. He should skyrocket up these rankings after the next update. He has an offer from UMass, Nebraska, ODU, Pitt, Syracuse, Temple, Tennessee, and Virginia Tech. Yes, No. 27 is a bit too low for LeBrun.
No. 26 Kanye Udoh Kanye Udoh 6'0" | 190 lbs | RB St. Augustine | 2022 State NJ Ι 6-0 Ι Running Back Ι St. Augustine
Udoh carried the football 129 times for 649 yards and six touchdowns last season. He’s another candidate for a higher ranking after the next update. Udoh has an offer from Buffalo, UConn, UMass, Nebraska, Rutgers, Syracuse, Temple, and West Virginia.
