Bishop Heelan’s Grant Whitcomb Grant Whitcomb 6'0" | 165 lbs | DB/WR Bishop Heelan | 2027 State IA makes a strong debut on the rankings after a productive two-way season for the 3A runner-up squad. Whitcomb finished the season with 17 tackles and six interceptions (one pick-six) and was the team’s leading receiver with 24 catches for 572 yards and five touchdowns. My takeaway from Grant’s tape is that the guy is a flat-out playmaker. He’s very smart in coverage, demonstrating he can read and react on the fly by picking up route concepts and anticipating when to jump routes. Grant was especially effective in zone coverage, where he kept his eyes on the play and did a great job of lurking and baiting QBs into bad throws, while having the top-tier closing speed to get to the ball right away. He is very smooth in transition with clean footwork, loose hips, and a shifty change of direction. One thing that stood out was his effectiveness at playing through the receiver’s hands to force incompletions. Stock is soaring for Grant going into the offseason!
