A talented ball hawk that will be entering into his senior season at Greece Athena High School. Darius Howard Darius Howard 5'10" | 155 lbs | DB Athena | 2025 State NY plays DB for Greece Athena and was aggressive all over the field. Not only did Howard show his aggressive side in coverage; being able to play in press situations on WRs, but Darius also showed that he can be patient and play off-coverage in zone schemes. Many times, Howard was able to stick with WRs deep down the field and break up intended passes in one-on-one situations. Being able to track the ball and keep his composer really showed. One of my favorite attributes in Howard’s game is the versatility that he presents. The talent to be able to line up as a Safety in the middle or deep portion of the field, or even being able to line up as a slot CB, showed a tremendous amount. This is a DB that is not afraid to line-up against the best weapon on the opposing team and did it many times this past season. Certainly, being able to come up and make big time tackles is a portion of Howard’s game that has improved. Many times, Darius was flying down and attacking in the run game to secure tackles behind the LOS.
