Jaylen McCollum is another talented DB we watched earlier this year, and he showed up big in Jasper’s opener last Friday.

“At 6’1 180, McCollum has great size and plays with a ton of speed and physicality outside at CB.

McCollum is highly instinctual and excellent at reading and reacting to plays. He isn’t easily beaten in coverage, is a constant threat to pick off/break up passes, and consistently puts himself in great position to take down the ball carrier when defending the run.

McCollum thrives off his physicality. He reroutes WRs at the line of scrimmage, is great in man coverage, and can easily fight off blocks and deliver huge hits to the ball carrier.“

McCollum more than did his part in Jasper’s 41-7 win over Brookwood, hauling in an INT, FR, and providing great coverage and run defense all game long. It didn’t matter what Brookwood was trying to accomplish; Jasper and this secondary had an answer.

I can’t wait to see more from McCollum this year, in the meantime, check out some of his highlights from this week:
