About Josiah
Expert Analysis
Marcus Henry | Prep Redzone Scout
Martin is one of the most savvy route runners in the state of Texas. Nicknamed “ISO Joe”, leave him one on one in coverage and he will make you pay. Off of the line of scrimmage, he has an explosive get off, he has oily hips, his footwork is clean without false steps, which allows him to create separation early in his routes consistently. Martin’s ability to dip, turn, cut and get in and out of his breaks quickly, makes him a difficult cover. Josiah is shifty in space, he has the burst to accelerate past defensive backs to get open and he gets vertical in a hurry. When he sees the ball in his vicinity, he lays claim to it with his aggressiveness to make a play on it. Martin has strong mitts that engulf the football and he tracks the football like a center fielder in baseball. Josiah has the skill set to line up on the outside or inside and when it’s gametime just let him go get it. His elite body control, combined with his explosive jumping ability, gives him an advantage in coverage and this allows him to win on the 50/50 contested catches. He has been one the hottest recruits in Texas, adding to his list of double digit offers in February which includes, Minnesota, TCU, Purdue, Mississippi State, Cincinnati and Jackson State. Josiah has several visits set up heading into the spring and could possibly commit this summer.
