Coffey is a bit of a do-it-all; he plays tight end on offense, where he flashes good hands, he has taken direct snaps to the house and flashes good breakaway speed for his size. Good pass catcher.

At the end of August, Prep Redzone released our very early Class of 2029 rankings as the season kicked off. Over the coming weeks, we will be breaking down tape of each of the players ranked so far.

Keep in mind these rankings are very fluid, especially to kick off this season. All of the players are ranked very closely, and we'll keep making changes and additions as the season rolls on ahead of the fall.
