2027 George Washington DB Demajaih Spencer continues to climb after a breakout junior season and a strong offseason on the camp circuit. Spencer earned DB MVP honors at our recent Exposure Series event, showcasing the athleticism and coverage skills that have made him one of the fastest-rising defensive backs in the state.

DB MVP

Spencer started things off with a solid testing portion, posting marks of 4.47 on the shuttle drill, 7.18 on the L-Drill, and 4.82 on the 40-yard dash. Demajaih really impressed with his technique, showing a very sound skill set and great discipline in coverage. He showed off his strength a bit when pressing DBs, showing he can jam them up to disrupt timing. He uses his length to his advantage by making sure to get his hands up to defend passes and poke balls out through the catch process. Good footwork during his backpedal, fluid hips to change direction, and solid recovery speed. Demajaih looks primed to break out this season.

One of my favorite players to watch on Sunday, Spencer was the DB MVP, but also a top performer with a deep running back room. This shows you his versatility as he amongst the best players on site. The 72nd ranked prospect in West Virginia 2027 class, Spencer had himself a day, especially in the testing where he was near the top of every category.

There’s plenty of intrigue surrounding what 2027 George Washington DB Demajaih Spencer can do at the WV Exposure Series because the athletic tools are already there. He has established himself as one of the higher-ranked players at the position entering the event, and Sunday gives him another opportunity to show why. Spencer moves well and has the type of athleticism that should translate during both testing and coverage work. One of the bigger evaluations will be how he handles the physical side of competition against bigger receivers throughout the day. If he competes aggressively and tests the way he’s capable of, Spencer should leave camp with a strong overall showing.
