Kayden Hickman Kayden Hickman Kayden Hickman 6'0" | 205 lbs | LB/EDGE Searcy | 2027 State AR ‘s performance last week against Jacksonville was solid. He amassed 8 tackles and a quarterback hurry. His ability to cover ground from sideline to sideline, coupled with his knack for taking solid angles in pursuit of the ball carrier, put him in a position to make plays. Hickman also displays a good read-and-react ability, quickly breaking on the ball to either make a tackle or force a pass breakup. His lateral agility and physicality at the point of attack are impressive. Searcy is on the road this week vs Pine Bluff.
