Braylen Gibbs Braylen Gibbs 6'1" | 175 lbs | DB Knoxville Catholic | 2028 State TN is a high-potential receiver prospect who should have a more well-rounded game next year in his second season of focusing on the wideout position.

Standing at nearly 6-foot-3, he is a massive target for his quarterback and has the athleticism and movement ability to run all the route concepts with a full offseason of focusing on the position.

He has made some big plays happen this season and with his long, strong frame he should develop into an exciting receiver prospect with another year at the position.

As Tyreek King Tyreek King 6'0" | 170 lbs | WR Knoxville Catholic | 2026 State TN heads to Tennessee, Gibbs will become the focal point of the passing attack.

Farragut’s Braylen Gibbs Braylen Gibbs 6'1" | 175 lbs | DB Knoxville Catholic | 2028 State TN is a wide receiver prospect that looks to be following in the footsteps of his older brother and cousins for the Admirals. Braylen is the younger brother of Jaden Gibbs (WR, entered the portal from UT Martin) and cousin of Isaiah Gibbs (RB at UT Martin) and Elijah Gibbs (RB at Indiana Wesleyan)–all of which suited up for the Knox County mainstay. Out of the three older relatives, Braylen’s skill set is strikingly similar to his older brother Jaden, who was a three-star coming out of Farragut High School in 2019. For little cousin Braylen, he was a big reason for the Admirals unblemished 20-0 record and two MAC titles over the last two seasons. Part of a talented receiving corps, Gibbs repeatedly showed off the ability to make big plays. He’s an extremely advanced route runner for this stage and can make defensive backs look foolish at times. He demonstrates a high football IQ and understands when to break off a route and how to work back towards his quarterback if he’s under duress.
