Christmas picked up an offer from Sacramento St. on May 1st. The #30 overall prospect in PRZ’s 2026 rankings is one of Nevada’s most underrated DBs on the recruiting trail. He put his name on the radar with the promising flashes he showed as a sophomore and has continued to develop into one of the most well-rounded DBs in the state. He’s a high-upside athlete that possesses all the physical tools of a future playmaker at the next level. Look for Christmas to add a few more D-I offers this offseason.
Blessed to receive my first D1 offer from Sacramento state university 🟢 #gohornets @SacHornetsFB @DJ_Campbell26 @coachdaynediaz @247Sports @PrepRedzoneNV @CoachMarshawn @JoeArrigo_HSG @phase1football @BrandonHuffman pic.twitter.com/NgAfojsQJT

Christmas picked up his first D-I offer from Middle Tennessee in early December. PRZ NV’s #6-DB continued to establish himself as one of the state’s most talented defenders in the secondary this season after showing flashes of his potential as a sophomore. He’s a smart, instinctive CB with ideal size, length and athleticism at 6’/185. Look for Christmas to continue putting his name on the 2026 radar throughout the offseason.
Extremely blessed to receive my very first offer from @MT_FB 🙏@coachdaynediaz @BGR8_ISI @DJ_Campbell26 @LVCen10Football @EdneyCoach53491 pic.twitter.com/5U1p3bwg6N

Jhbari Christmas Jhbari Christmas 6'0" | 165 lbs | DB Centennial | 2026 State NV is set to be a top defensive back in Nevada’s 2026 class. His film impressed when he didn’t even play half a season this fall, so don’t be surprised if he becomes a top two-way prospect after playing a full season in 2024. Jhbari showed a rare combination of length, speed, and ball skills in the pick six you see immediately on his highlight tape. A smooth change of direction and good strength shows accelerating and ripping the ball away from receivers at the catch point. Coaches love Jhbari’s combination of power, burst, and physicality displayed flattening receivers in the open field.

Christmas made plays in the secondary in limited action (3 games) for Centennial this season. He’s an active coverage-defender in the back half that can cover space with his range and sticks to WR threats in his zone. He’s a smooth, athletic mover that shows good spatial awareness and takes efficient angles in pursuit. Christmas should be on the radar for Nevada’s 2026 skill-guys heading into next season.
