One of the more interesting uncommitted players remaining on the board when the Prep Redzone Iowa Class of 2027 rankings update was released in late August, Creighton is like a Swiss Army Knife as a prospect. Colleges should view him as a high-end athlete with speed and a projectable frame that can be molded into whatever the staff sees as best. As a prep, Creighton shows a high aptitude for making plays with the ball in his hands. He’s linear for a running back, but makes it work with a good feel for flowing with the offense, keeping the pads low, making defenders miss and running over them. It’s a frame that also would work at receiver or at defensive back. Special teams also would receive contributions.

Graduation took a toll on a deep Wahlert Catholic backfield that helped claim the Class 3A championship. However, the Golden Eagles still look to be in good shape with several players set to step up, including up-and-comer Brody Creighton Brody Creighton 6'2" | 195 lbs | RB/ATH Wahlert Catholic | 2027 State IA , who turned heads at our PRZ showcase this offseason, where he posted testing times of 4.36 shuttle drill, 7.3 L-drill, and a 9’1″ broad jump. Brody has a bigger frame at 6’1″, 190 pounds with a powerful, sturdy base that allows him to stay upright as he fights through contact. Shifty, clean footwork helps him make quick cuts in tight quarters. Once Creighton clears the second level, he flashes the acceleration to break away from defenses and find his way to the endzone. Brody is a legit receiving threat who can make catches out of the backfield or can line up in the slot and route up LBs. Breakout candidate for this fall!

An excellent group of seniors helped the Golden Eagles to an unbeaten state championship run last Fall. They’ll need to reload in 2025, and that’s where Creighton comes in. He shines during his sophomore highlight video. He’s a physical runner with speed and smooth actions. It’s a skill set that should also work well on defense, where he fits in the secondary.
