2028 Rankings- New Lockdown DBs in Our Ranks
Karson Lacey is an impressive DB from Daphne who’s making his debut as our #8 DB and #67...
“Lacey is physical at the line of scrimmage, quick on his feet, and has the coverage and ball skills to come away with some huge PBUs/INTs in man coverage. Lacey is excellent at using his eyes to track the ball and frequently prevented big plays downfield all last season.
On top of that, Lacey is a reliable tackler on special teams who helped create a ton of big plays on opposing punts/kickoffs this past season. He’s a really well-rounded player with the best in front of him. Be sure to watch out for him.”
Lacey really impressed in his sophomore season and is starting to pick up some much-deserved attention, landing his first offer from North Alabama!
With how well he played last fall, I think this is just the beginning when it comes to Lacey’s recruitment. We’re going to see a lot of schools reach out his way.
Lacey was a ball hawk in the secondary, making numerous plays on the ball and a multitude of interceptions over the weekend. He has fast, twitchy feet that allow him to press receivers at the line and close on receivers at the top of their routes. Teams struggled to complete quick game and intermediate routes consistently because of his ability to break on the ball. This also contributed to Lacey creating turnovers in the redzone and at the goal line.

I hadn’t watched Lacey until recently, but came away really impressed. He has a huge junior season ahead next fall; everyone needs to be on the lookout for him.
