The only player on this list not honing from a public school, Nazeem is in a position to get immediate recognition when he steps on the field for Paramus Catholic this fall. The #3 ranked LB in the NJ 2027 class, Nazeem is an impressive athlete with a ton of upside. To me, it looks like Nazeem is made to play the strong safety position. Versatile on the defensive side of the ball, Nazeem is a valuable asset in pass coverage as well as in run defense. Nazeem is quick and reactive to the play, having the ability to drop into coverage with speed and keep up with the top receivers on the opponent’s offense. In the defensive run game, Nazeem can recognize the play quickly and charge up field to make a play on the outside.

A phenomenal open field tackler, very few runners get away from Nazeem once he’s within arms reach. He is extremely fast in his attack, closing in quickly on the runner and swiftly bringing them to the ground before they ever get a chance to make a move. Always itching for a big hit, Nazeem can deliver punishing tackles to any runner or blocker heading his direction.
