Eli Klimek
About Eli
Expert Analysis
Brian Jerzak | Prep Redzone Scout
When Klimek is coming downhill – as a linebacker, ball carrier, or lead blocker – he significantly impacts the game. His ability to be physical stands out quickly. Part of why he can be so violent is because of his speed. Klimek generates a lot of force because he combines size and speed. He is not just a bruiser, however. On offense, the Tigers’ athlete can catch the ball out of the backfield and make people miss. He is not just running routes into the flat; he is making plays deep downfield. He can even throw a halfback option pass. Defensively, he moves well in space as a linebacker. When Klimek hits a runner, he wraps up, and the ball carrier is going to go backward.
