The rising Junior from Marin Catholic has great size, an athletic build and long arms for the position. Originally coming to MC as a quarterback, he has shown flashes at the tight end position and done well flexed out wide and is able to be a possession player in space with a huge catch radius and strong hands. Continuing to pack on more weight to his frame and progressing, he will be one to watch across the Bay Area through the 2023 season and into next off-season.
Jennings made the switch to Live Oak from Valley Christian this year, and will be one of the top players across the CCS in 2023. He has legit size and a big bodied frame while moving well for his size and also is active along the defensive line. He plays with heavy hands, creating immediate knock-back and provides some twitch in pass rush situations. Jennings could potentially find his home along the defensive line at the college level due to size, athleticism and length.
Highlights
Keck is a mismatch on the outside with great hands, body control and downfield speed while able to get off press coverage and win one on one battles in the red-zone. He is a explosive playmaker with long strides and shows high-point abilities while boxing out defenders downfield and is able to stretch the field with both vertical routes and sinking in zone coverage. He is a well put together kid that should see his stock continue to rise through his Junior season and is one of the best 2025 TE’s the region has to offer.
