Evaluation from JV Film: Fahd Faris Fahd Faris 5'10" | 170 lbs | DB/LB South Windsor | 2028 New E , a new player profile from South Windsor High School, is a versatile defensive prospect at 5’10”, 170 pounds who stands out primarily as an instinctive overhead safety. Faris shows strong comfort dropping into deep thirds and operating in zone coverage, where he reads the quarterback well and positions himself to make plays on the football. His awareness and ball skills consistently show up on film, allowing him to generate interceptions and create momentum-changing defensive plays.
Faris also brings added value as an offensive gadget option, showing the ability to motion into the backfield, take handoffs, and contribute with the ball in his hands. He has solid speed and becomes especially dangerous after turnovers, capable of turning interceptions into significant returns. His versatility and instincts make him a valuable two-way athlete, but his defensive upside is strongest as a zone safety. Continued development in tackling consistency and physical finishing ability will help round out his game and make him an even more complete defensive back at the next level.
