2025 Defensive Back Jayden Kimling Jayden Kimling 6'3" | 170 lbs | DB Perry | 2025 State AZ is going to be a great returning piece for this Perry defense. At an impressive 6’3 170lb frame, he played as the down safety in the Pumas scheme as a spark plug for this team. Last season, he had 59 total tackles, 30 of those as solo tackles, 6 TFLs, and 5 pass deflections in his junior year campaign. When he comes down from depth, you better watch yourself as he is on a mission to take someone out with exemplary angles of pursuit and power behind his hits. He plays with high energy and flies to the ball, looking to disrupt the other team’s offense in any way he can. Kimling heading into his senior year will be seeking to do more of the same from his previous season, assisting his team in helping this defense become a top-tier unit.
