The Proctor Academy defense is shaping up to be exponentially above the majority of their peers. Now let’s incorporate Jackson Downey Jackson Downey 6'2" | 195 lbs | DB Proctor Academy | 2023 State New E into the secondary and front seven. I’m genuinely surprised to see Downey wait as long as he did for his first FCS offer to arrive. New Hampshire pulled the trigger on the 6’2, 200-pound safety/linebacker hybrid. Downey came away with 4 interceptions in eight games last Fall. Where Downey makes an impression is in his ability to both diagnose the run and read passing concepts and attack downhill to make stops. I expect FCS schools to recruit him to play linebacker at the next level. FCS teams could use his safety reps as experience to play the pass at OLB if need be. Happy to see his recruitment begin to blossom.
