Prep Redzone Lead Scout

While he did retire before I was even born, I’ve watched enough film of NFL 1980s All-Decade Team selection John Riggins to know that his running style is spot on for a comparison to Cannon Cantrell Cannon Cantrell 5'10" | 185 lbs | RB/LB Bentonville | 2031 AR . Cantrell is one of the main reasons Fulbright Junior High’s 8th grade team (which feeds into Bentonville High School) sits at 5-1 on the season as of October 14th, with their lone loss coming by a single point to undefeated Grimsley.

A true power back. Runs like a downhill locomotive with no breaks. Has good–not great–speed at this point, certainly enough to win the majority of foot races to the end zone

Is he a future stud Linebacker? He’s put together pretty well with solid muscle and wins most 1:1 meetings in the hole. While he may not currently have the speed and quickness of a future RB, it certainly checks the box as a Middle Linebacker
