is a long, rangy safety prospect that possesses playmaking ability when breaking down on the ball from his safety position. He has very good length for the position and is likely right there around at 6-foot-2 now heading into his junior season.
He has the length, athleticism and natural movement ability to make plays on the ball consistently against both the run and pass.
As he gets more comfortable and continues to add weight to his frame, he could reach a new level of consistency and playmaking ability as a junior patrolling the backend of the secondary for the defense.
He is an attractive safety recruit currently flying under the radar that has a lot more potential to tap into and if he does that, he could see the recruiting interest begin to heat up late this fall.

transferred from Middle Tennessee Christian to Blackman over the summer and has been an impact player all season. The 6-foot-1 safety has plenty of length, athleticism and football IQ to play the strong safety position.
He plays sound coverage in the back end of the Blackman defense, but can also walk up in the box. Sanders is a good tackler who does a good job with his angles to avoid letting the opposition get extra yards.

is a long, athletic safety who looks to be a playmaker that attacks downhill on the ball.
As he becomes more explosive, he has the length and movement skills to track down ball carries and make a tackle.
He is still improving in the coverage aspect, but shows encouraging signs to be an impact player when he attacks downhill on targets from his zone.
He showed an encouraging baseline skillset that the 2028 prospect can keep developing in his high school career.
