To wrap up our top five linebackers in the class of 2027 in the state of Kentucky, I have Brody Simpkins Brody Simpkins 6'2" | 210 lbs | LB/EDGE Ashland Blazer | 2027 State KY . Simpkins had a strong junior year at inside linebacker for Ashland. He was very impressive against the run, showing the ability to read his keys quickly then come downhill in a hurry to meet the ball carrier before they could get going. Once he gets to the ball carrier, he does a great job of exploding through contact to finish the tackle quickly. Brody finished his junior year with a team-high 106 tackles and eight tackles for loss in 12 games. He also came away with an interception this season. Simpkins also made an impact on offense this year, carrying the ball 77 times for 576 yards and six touchdowns while also catching a touchdown pass. Brody currently holds an offer from Morehead State and I wouldn’t be surprised to see more come his way soon.
