Padilla is a ballhawk in the secondary with a talent for tracking the football and securing interceptions. His excellent hands and field awareness allow him to fly around the field, picking off passes and turning the tide for his team. Padilla’s aggressive mentality will be crucial as Grand Junction Central looks to limit their opponent’s offensive production. Watch for him to be a key playmaker, using his vision to anticipate throws and create turnovers that put his offense in favorable field positions.
