Five Versatile Delaware 2029 Athletes To Know

Being an athlete is one of the best tools you can have as a young football player. Coaches love versatility and having multiple skills means you can find your way on the field in many different ways. Needless to say these five certainly qualify as pure athletes, so lets look at these impressive prospects from The Diamond State.    Starting off the list let's look at CB/WR hybrid Riley Robinson. Robinson shows great talent as a corner, but his athletic skill set makes him an elite wide receiver. Robinson constantly uses his superior jumping ability to steal balls out of the sky, on offense and defense. But defenders beware, because if he gets the ball in his hands, good luck bringing him down. Robinson is as shifty as they come, snapping defenders' ankles at every turn. Whether you are an opposing receiver, or corner, matching up against Riley Robinson is far from an easy task.     Everyone loves a good comeback story, and in The Diamond State there aren't many comeback stories better than that of Bralen Matthews. Matthews is a rising star, but after going down with an ACL tear last year, there was no guarantee he would return to 100%. This year however Matthews squashed any worry, returning to his old form and dominating on the gridiron. On the field Matthews showcases great speed and jump ball skills, but his strongest asset comes from his supreme work ethic. Matthews also has football in his genes, as his older brother is currently a QB at West Virginia.      Next up is running back/wide receiver Romelo [player_tooltip player_id='1256586' first='Wilson' last='']. Elusiveness is the name of the game when it comes to [player_tooltip player_id='1256586' first='Wilson' last=''], as he demonstrates impressive change of direction. Currently standing at 5 '4 [player_tooltip player_id='1256586' first='Wilson' last=''] profiles better as a receiver for now, but if he hits a growth spurt his elusiveness serves him best as a running back. If you let [player_tooltip player_id='1256586' first='Wilson' last=''] get in open space, good luck trying to bring him down. [player_tooltip player_id='1256586' first='Wilson' last=''] shows great skills, if he continues to hone his craft, he will be lethal at the next level.     Fourth on the list is Tyson Johnson from Baceon. Johnson profiles best as a receiver as of now, showcasing great ability to find soft spots against opposing secondaries. Overall Johnson is an incredible athlete, and his coaches know it, constantly working him in as a running back and even taking some snaps at QB. Johnson showcases great speed, catch radius, and ball carrier skills, all things you look for from a true Athlete. And on top of all that Johnson plays basketball as well, so you know he can jump.     Last but not least let's look at OLB/RB Darius Carter II. Carter is a twitchy pass rusher, showcasing an impressive swim move to blow by opposing tackles. Carter also shows off some impressive hit power and a nose for the football,sifting through the crowd to find and lay out the opposing ball carrier. On the offensive side Carter is more of a rough and tumble style back, having no issue absorbing a hit and gaining 2-3 yards after contact. That being said, don't be surprised when you see him juke out a few defenders from time to time. Whether he decides to be a running back or and EDGE, have no doubt Carter is going to succeed.
