A metro-Atlants quarterback on the rise in Covington, Shaw is a big-time passer still flying under the radar as a senior. He shows above-average arm strength and does a good job of putting air under the ball to allow his receivers to run under it down the field. He shows good command and poise in the pocket and knows how to push the ball vertically. He had a giant game in week two, leading Eastside to a big 41-0 win over Hiram where he threw for 276 yards and five touchdowns. He’s a quarterback on the rise with a chance to have a massive final season if he continues to improve week after week. He’s another 2026 passer who will be added to the next Prep Redzone rankings this winter.
