Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Trusty is a dependable linebacker who gives valuable production his team. He measures in at 6’0 180 pounds. He has good athletic ability due to good speed, acceleration, and good change of direction. He showcases good mental processing by identifying the gaps and rushing them leading to a TFL. He will also follow the QB’s eyes in zone coverage. Trusty is a very good run stopper. He sheds the block with ease and tackles towards the center of gravity. He uses his lengthy arms to wrap up the defenders and his very good strength to throw them around with ease. Trusty has very good competitive toughness as well. He was consistently assisting teammates with tackles. If he was beaten on one play, he’d get up and win the next. Trusty has a big season ahead of him, and I can’t wait to see him succeed.

Trusty is a backer that has made it a habit of meeting the ball carrier in the backfield as he has 6TFL on the season. He has been able to use his vision to come and fill the gap, having 27 solo tackles. He takes good pursuit angles and rallies to the football having 34 assisted tackles. For the second half he will look to continue this momentum and try to lead his team in tackles.
