About Colton
Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Heimlicher is currently recovering from a surgery, and didn’t work out, however that didn’t stop him from coming in early to learn. Measuring in at 6’4 230-pounds, he was bruising force on the edge for Creek last year. He had 72 total tackles (30 solo, 42 assisted), 11 TFL, 7 sacks, and 1 INT. Very good athletic ability due to very good acceleration, lateral quickness, change of direction, and good speed. Very good strength, hand strength, and hand placement. Heimlicher has very good initial quickness out of his stance, with very good hand speed. Very good bend around the edge showing off his flexibility. Very good get off speed and block shedding. Very good tackling and won’t stop till the ball carrier is in his grasp in the backfield. Relentless pursuit. He just received his first offer from Penn, and I believe this is the first of many for a rising edge rusher.
