Read EvaluationRobert Davis | Prep Redzone Scout
Contreras is an explosive edge rusher who can shoot through gaps and put immediate pressure on the quarterback. He recorded 6.5 sacks last season and added 10 tackles for loss, showing his ability to create negative plays. Contreras can set the edge when needed but thrives on using his quickness to beat blockers and disrupt the backfield. As one of the top returning tacklers for his team, he will be a crucial piece of the defense. Heading into the season, he looks to establish himself as a top edge defender in 3A.
