Overall, he's a dual-threat. </p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/xaviercox2027/status/2010453225351393523?s=20 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1568597' first='Carelle' last='Miller'] is a breakout candidate for 2026. He brings experience at linebacker and running back. Defensively, he's physical at the POA. He can cover the entire field and works laterally efficiently. At running back, he also brings that physicality with good contact balance to break through tackles. Keep an eye on him.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/certifiedRell23/status/1910430365111419330?s=20 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1863731' first='Cordaro' last='Berry'] will play at the next level. He can line up at nickel, near the boundary, inside the box, or in the deep thirds, demonstrating his versatility. Berry displays a solid, sideline-to-sideline motor, filling gaps and chasing down ball carriers. He can flip his hips and transition smoothly when in zone coverage. He can also be a threat at running back with his quickness. Add him to your recruiting board. </p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/cordaroberry16/status/1999962830225956971?s=20 </div></figure>
