Jordan Reyes

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

Vincent is an active defender that can play multiple spots with his size and athleticism at 6’3” 220 lbs. He’s a natural bender that flashes the lateral agility to work around blockers avoiding contact and the short area speed to close space on the ball carrier. Plays with good leverage and pad level out of his stance and at the contact point. Drives his feet and accelerates through to bring heavy contact at the POA. High football IQ to execute his assignment and diagnose run/pass. Off to a strong start to the 2024 season with 12 total tackles, 3 TFL, 2 sacks, and 1 blocked punt for a touchdown in his first two games. Sioux Falls and Idaho are his first two offers.

Dean Vincent Dean Vincent 6'3" | 215 lbs | LB Pinnacle | 2025 State AZ is incredibly disruptive coming off the edge for Pinnacle’s defense. With the combination of his active hands and quick feet, opposing offensive linemen are rarely able to get a solid grip on him. On the off chance someone does get ahold of him, he keeps his motor churning and finds a way to get away and attack the ball-carrier. Vincent does an exceptional job running stunts and using his speed to confuse the offense. It’s not just speed though, he has the sheer strength to move people out of his way on his way into the backfield. When he breaks into the backfield he shows off his speed again as he wreaks havoc. With his strength, neither quarterbacks nor running backs are able to slip out of his grasp once he gets his hands on them. With 15.5 sacks and 22 hurries in his junior season, Vincent is a player coaches are going to have a close eye on going into his senior year.
