Gus Faulkner Gus Faulkner 6'3" | 195 lbs | LB/DB Fairhope | 2027 State AL is a talented S/LB from Fairhope who’s coming off a dominant junior season for his team’s defense.

“Faulkner is extremely productive off-ball, making tons of plays out in coverage. It’s really impressive watching him fly around the field to break up passes. With his size, he presents a multitude of matchup issues against TEs/RBs.

Faulkner is also great at defending the run. He’s excellent at reading and reacting to plays, consistently putting himself in great position to fill in gaps and take down the ball carrier no matter where he initially lines up.“

Faulkner had another huge year this past fall, recording 121 total tackles (9 for loss), one sack, 4 PBUs, one INT, 4 FF (3 FRs), and one TD.

I’ve become a big fan of Faulkner’s over the past year and think he has a big year ahead of him in 2026. If you haven’t watched his tape before, be sure to check out some of his clips below:
