Best, a safety, made 55 total tackles (28 solo), intercepted three passes, and recovered two fumbles last season. He committed to Fordham on June 15th. Best plays physical, fast, and is explosive. Has a burst that allows him to quickly close on throws and under routes. Best is another versatile defensive back for GP, able to play both safety and cornerback positions. Can play in the box as a safety and also cover his area deep.
