Cameron Tucker
About Cameron
Expert Analysis
Matt Morrow | Prep Redzone Scout
Cameron didn’t have a major stat line in this one from his corner spot, picking up 3 tackles on the game. However, he really did well in a lot of pass coverage against star Trojan WR Jaziyah Mclean. The Trojans really tried to get him the ball to get their offense going, but Cameron had multiple pass breakups downfield in tight-man coverage. Cameron has excellent speed and played with great technique all game long.

Though his overall numbers ticked down as a junior, we thought Tucker’s level of play actually improved. Tucker plays bigger than his size indicates and that allows him to be left on an island as an outside corner. He’s also comfortable playing in tight spaces as well, which means we think he could eventually thrive as a slot corner at the next level. His ball skills are excellent and when he’s tested, which isn’t often he’s able to more than hold his own.

I had a chance to talk with Cameron in the summer of last season, and I will share that here because I think he’s a well-spoken young man. Cameron recently received his first offer from East Carolina, and the thing I really like about him on the field is his speed. Cameron can really run and cover ground quickly in the secondary. Cameron also does a good job in man coverage, staying in phase with receivers on a variety of routes all over the field. He is a good selection for this Junior Bowl team – on the next level right now he projects as a slot corner.
