About John
Expert Analysis
Connor Jackson | Prep Redzone Scout
John Amofah is a broad, stout defensive line prospect who created penetration and havoc all afternoon against LaGrange. He dominated his matchup early on with his combination of explosiveness and mass. He also anchored down well and was difficult to move off the ball. He is an efficient bull rusher, frequently driving blockers onto their heels and denting the pocket, creating pressure in the face of the QB and flushing him out. Amofah is still young, so his physical presence will only continue to grow over the next few years.

This summer at the Tennessee/Kentucky Future Stars game was the first glimpse we got of Amofah Jr. and the young man certainly lest a lasting impression, en route to a Defensive MVP honor in the border bash. Since that mid-June showdown, Amofah Jr. has since moved to Georgia and now attends Utopian Academy, outside of Atlanta. However, the 5-foot-11, 215-pound Defensive Lineman has shown no signs of slowing down since the move. Natural strength and quickness, along with tweener size allows to play both Defensive End and Defensive Tackle. Going back to the Future Stars Game, Amofah Jr. notched a number of tackles for loss including a Sack and a Safety in the contest. Georgia is one of, if not the, top state for pre-high school football and I look forward to seeing him continue to ascend.
