is a good running back who played Junior Varsity for Imhotep Charter last season. Chappelle shows a good vision as a running back. He then explodes through a hole and has good moves to make defenders miss. He also catches the ball well in the open field. Then he has the moves to make defenders miss in the field. Chappelle has the talent to get on the field next year for Imhotep and to make an impact.

has limited film and it was from Junior Varsity, but he flashed some serious skills. He is a legit athlete with excellent speed. He has a chance to be a good player going forward. I expect Chappelle to get on the field next year for a loaded Imhotep squad. He probably should get some spot duty at running back and as a returner. Chappelle has a bright future.

Great combination of speed and power. Would have taken the former North Philly Blackhawk at either Running Back or Linebacker for this list.

has elite speed and athleticism as a running back. Anytime he touches the ball he can score. He has good burst and acceleration in the hole. Chappelle has some of the most unbelievable moves you ever seen. The way he sets up and makes defenders miss in space is special. He also shows good hands when he catches the ball well outside of the backfield. Chappelle has all the tools to play at a high-level next season.

We’ve touched on a prospect from Pittsburgh, we’ve touched on a few from around Harrisburg, but what about Philly? Enter

of the North Philly Blackhawks. The Blackhawks are a program with a pedigree of success as well, having won city championships in Pop Warner, AAU and AYF football leagues. Chappelle is an early name-to-know in the Philly pre-high school football scene. The explosive back is ready to take the reigns of the North Philly Blackhawks, replacing 2023 PRZ Next Camp Running Back MVP and 2027 prospect

(currently unranked, on the Watch List). Comparing the two prospects, Chappelle is further ahead than Nelson was at this point. I’m not sure when the world will see another Barry Sanders (NFL Hall of Famer) but that’s the name I thought of while watching Chappelle’s film. His on-field vision is extremely impressive, as is his ability to stop and start. He also runs with a nice, low center of gravity, which allows him to execute jump cuts with the best of them. Very impressive kid.
