Josiah Hood Josiah Hood 6'1" | 240 lbs | DL Elizabeth | 2028 NJ is on the verge of breaking out. The 6’1”, 240-pound interior lineman has been a force for Elizabeth and could make major noise in the playoffs.

Hood stands out for his athleticism and quick first step. He fires off the line with purpose, using his burst and power to collapse pockets and disrupt plays early. As a freshman in the class of 2028, he already demonstrates advanced movement and strength for his age.

What makes Hood special is his ceiling. With three more years of growth, he has the chance to become one of the premier defensive linemen in North Jersey. His frame, agility, and motor give him every tool to dominate.

As Elizabeth prepares for its playoff matchup with Bayonne, Hood looks ready to announce himself as one of the next big names in New Jersey high school football.
