About Brayden
Expert Analysis
Tyler Graham | Prep Redzone Scout
On a powerhouse team like Belleville, the kicker isn’t really given a ton of the spotlight most of the time, but when you are all over the record book like Brayden is, the spotlight is inevitable! If you take a look at the MHSAA records, you’ll see him all over it, and it’s thanks to his hard work and amazing ability. He is accurate, he kicks with the same motion every time and has a driving leg that is clearly special. The ball pops off his foot better than just about anyone I have ever seen kick at the high school level.

We very rarely rank kickers, but I’ve watched Brayden way too many times not to. I’m honestly surprised that Brayden hasn’t earned more offers than he already has- but I’m also not too familiar with the kicker recruiting process. Having watched Brayden at a Davenport camp plus a couple times during State Championship warm-ups, I’m confident that Brayden has what it takes to be a college kicker.
Starting with punting- I’ve watched Brayden pin a ton of balls inside the 20. He has a rare sense of accuracy with his kicks, and is able to put some backspin on the ball and aim very close to the endzone.
With kicking, he’s near-automatic in warm-ups. He looks to have a smooth, consistent kicking motion, can boot it from 40+ out, and doesn’t seem to be affected much from pressure. I’ve seen him make kicks with me staring right at him, and I’ve seen him make kicks during the state championship.
I’m not sure where Brayden will end up, but I’m very excited to follow his career moving forward.
