<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Have you ever watched someone's film and thought to yourself, “Why doesn't this kid have more offers or any offers at all?” Western Pennsylvania produces many recruits every year who fit this description.

With the transfer portal, many high school recruits are getting overlooked who traditionally would've had more options.

His wingspan and other natural attributes suit him well as a college 5-technique. He's also capable of being an athletic OT should he ever bulk his way off of the defensive line. He does a good job of keeping his gap integrity, and using his hands to playoff blocks from the D line position. He has a good motor and he redirects well displaying good athleticism. On offense, he uses his pad level to get leverage down blocking or getting blocks on the second level. His agility in general also aids him well in pass protection. I don't think he has finished growing or reached his maximum strength yet.

As a left-handed passer, he has gained valuable experience in high school as a high-volume thrower. He is a pro-style quarterback with sound mechanics and technique. From the pocket, he is able to complete passes on all three levels, and he executes play-action movements with precision. Evans has demonstrated an ability to throw accurate deep passes and fit balls into tight windows with his arm strength. He also has the skill to go through his progressions while keeping his eyes downfield when scrambling, making him a dangerous runner. Every season, Evans has improved in terms of arm strength and poise, and his progression is expected to continue at the next level.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6459480a75e39"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/metcalfecarmen/status/1637183330364928003?s=46u0026amp;t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/metcalfecarmen/status/1637183330364928003?s=46&amp;t=Z9HVsIfxlYpUmBtFJHGC4g </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["558243"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u003cspan class=u0022s1u0022u003eCarmen demonstrates proficiency in playing the free safety position, effectively attacking the ball at its highest point.
