Expert Analysis
Will Helms | Prep Redzone Scout
Just a freshman, Monroe first made an impact on special teams with a punt return touchdown in his varsity debut. As the season went on, he began to contribute as a receiver and defensive back, finishing the year with just under 400 yards and two interceptions. He comes from a football family, and we expect him to have a huge career.

Monroe has turned heads this season as one of the state’s best young returnmen, but he has excellent upside as a true X receiver. He already has excellent size and length, and he’s shown the ability to make people miss after the catch as a freshman. He’s running a limited route tree this season, but he has easy ball skills, and his athleticism has made him a budding star on both sides of the ball. Expect more from him as he gets older.

Monroe has energized a budding Green Level team with explosive traits and the ability to flip a game with one play. In his first career game, Monroe had a crucial 77-yard punt return that ended up being the key play. He’s big, fast, and has the ability to play both sides of the ball. We really like his upside.
