plays with relentless energy and a non-stop motor. At 6’2”, 215 pounds, he lines up as an edge rusher for Hackensack but projects better as a linebacker at the next level. His explosiveness off the snap stands out, and he hustles to the football on every play. However, his overall pass-rush skill set—particularly his ability to bend and corner—suggests a move to linebacker could maximize his potential.
Collins has the physicality to take on blocks and the athleticism to drop into coverage. His frame and movement skills align more with an off-ball linebacker role, where he could make plays in space while still impacting the run game. If he makes the transition, his upside as a defensive playmaker could grow significantly.

, who also plays fullback for the Comets. As a fullback he moves very fluidly, almost to the degree in which a true tailback would. He is asked to kick out defenders, seal the edge, and lead blcok. As a defensive end Collins has his moments where he can get a real solid jump. He also has shown the ability to snatch linemen that engage him with the snatch, pulling them down and away. Offensively I would like to see Collins use his hands more, like he does on defense; on defense he would benefit from keeping his feet buzzing to knife into the backfield more. Last fall he was credited with 4 tackles and slashed 5/45/1 on the ground.
