has been one of the most productive running backs in the entire state over the last couple of seasons and willed his offense to success at times in his career.
He is on the shorter side at 5-foot-8, but has a very dense frame that holds around 185 pounds, which allows him to pick up the tough yards up the middle as he keeps his legs churning.
He does his best work running between the tackles and earning the tough yards to keep the offense in favorable positions.
He has shown ability to be used as a receiver in the screen game specifically, especially when catching it in stride and then cutting upfield.

Read EvaluationHudson Cregg | Prep Redzone Scout
E.J. is an impressive running back for Ensworth who holds offers from UT Martin, East Tennessee, and Eastern Kentucky, to name a few. He displays good vision, follows his blockers, and can make defenders miss with sharp cuts. To add on, he has solid contact balance, is able to stay on his feet after getting hit, and can break arm tackles consistently. His strength at his size is impressive; he throws a nasty stiff arm and can run you over. I view him as a two-down back who needs to improve in the pass game and his long speed.

Read EvaluationConner Smith | Prep Redzone Scout
Ensworth’s EJ Gibson is coming off a terrific junior season, where he rushed for 1,614 yards and 20 touchdowns, earning All-Midstate honors and being a Mr. Football candidate.
He’s an impressive player who possesses all the physical tools and polished skills to be a good player at the next level, but still has another year of high school ball. I expect him to have a monster senior season.
