Prep Redzone High School Combine Preview

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With the Prep Redzone NC Combine about to take place, here are five players that I am excited to see in action:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1219063' first='Zion' last='Morrison'] - Scotland County - The 6'4 220 pound EDGE prospect recently picked up his first offer from Howard, and has college interest from several schools. His length and physical frame are the prototype college coaches are looking for to help slow down the spread offenses all over college football today. Zion shows excellent agility and speed for his size and can explode with good speed in short spaces to get to the quarterback. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='483642' first='Immanuel' last='Collins'] - Shelby - I have covered Immanuel for a couple of years, and he is one of the hardest-working young men I can remember. As a receiver, I am excited to see how he has developed through the offseason. With the Golden Lions being a storied program, Collins has the potential to be one of the next talented Shelby wide receivers to make a big impact on Friday Nights. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='451872' first='Cayden' last='Roscoe'] - Patton - I recently wrote about Patton in a column featuring linebackers. Cayden can do a lot of things to help a football team - playing receiver, returning kicks and punts, and his athleticism for a player with a 6'3 frame is impressive. I am sure he will have a good combine performance. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1127739' first='Jadon' last='Best'] - Aycock - Jadon impressed me in a previous showcase I covered - as a 6'1 305 pound defensive lineman, Jadon is very athletic and strong at the point of attack. He uses his hands well and can defeat blocks of offensive linemen quickly and penetrate in the backfield. Jadon is a player that should shine in a combine setting and should have more college interest. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1148569' first='Ethan' last='Driver'] - Davie County - Any player that has a sophomore season with 56 catches for almost 1000 yards and 12 touchdowns is a player that I'm excited to learn more about. A 2026 prospect, Ethan is a good-sized player at 6'2 and 175 pounds who displays strong hands and precise routes on his highlight film. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
