About Jovan
Expert Analysis
Brendan Mankarious | Prep Redzone Scout
Although he plays for the Bulldogs, this DB is a total ballhawk. Passaic County Tech has benefited from the services of CB Javon Tyrell the last few years. At 6’1″ 185lbs this twitchy defender, who also plays basketball, made 48 stops (1 for a loss), 3 Ints, 1 FF, and 13 PBUs last fall. He contributed 17/173/2 as a receiver as well.
Tyrell typically plays off the ball between a 6-8 yard depth. This enables him to see passing concepts develop in front of him. It also allows him to consistently jump routes and get his hands on the ball many times. Tyrell also trusts his “make-up” speed. This is shown as he likes to play in a trailing position to make a play on the ball. He also does a nice job of taking the air out of receivers’ area to catch the ball, by leveraging his body position to squeeze them between himself and the sideline. He also flies up in run support and to tackle short screens. College coaches watching Tyrell’s film would love to see his versatility (press coverage, lining up in slot) and how he comes off blockers in run support.
Apparently Bulldogs can fly. Tyrell is living proof of that as he flies all over the field on every snap, making plays seemingly at will.
