Expert Analysis
Rob Howe | Prep Redzone Scout
There are always a collection of student-athletes at the state championships in the UNI-Dome that outperform our expectations. It’s important to say “our” expectations compared to “their.” They’re confident, poised and impactful. Edwards fits that description. He lined up behind center when Wilton reached the semifinals after road wins at West Branch and PCM. He completed 57.4 percent of his passes for 1,873 yards and 17 touchdowns. Edwards rushed for 452 yards (4.2 YPC) and five scores, and added a two-point conversion. The junior impressed me with his well-rounded skill set and toughness. He handled pressure well while under siege against eventual state champion Kuemper Catholic in the final four. Edwards threw for 199 yards and a touchdown. He also contributed 51 yards on the ground. Edwards is a dual-threat signal caller and a good athlete, which would keep open the door for a position switch on the next level if a staff saw it as a better path to his ceiling.
