Jimmerson is one of the top interior rushers in the class across southern California and is a balanced defensive tackle with the frame to be 285+ by the time his prep career comes to a close. He is strong at the point, uses his leverage well and gets underneath blockers while showing quick block recognition, change of direction and pursuit to the ball backside and behind the line.

Read EvaluationMichael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Jimmerson had 14 tackles, two for a loss and a forced fumble for a Santa Margarita team that won the state championship.
He was the defensive line MVP at the Prep Redzone Stock Up Showcase against very good competition and it will be interesting to see how he does against the elite competition at this event. He’s explosive off the ball and has the initial punch to knock offensive linemen back. Jimmerson has a good first step outside followed by a club inside which wins a lot of reps in the 1-on-1 period.

Read EvaluationPaul Gregorian | Prep Redzone Scout
Jimmerson is a very powerful interior rusher that is stout against the run and plays with good leverage and inside hand placement at the POA. He snaps out of his stance and creates immediate knock-back while showing he can eat blocks and two gap inside if needed. He wins with a high motor and pursuit to the ball when rushing the passer and has fluid hips/hands in transition and can quickly transition from run to pass. Jimmerson is overall a technically sound defender already heading into his second season for Santa Margarita and is a no-brainer FBS talent that is one of the best at his position in the Trinity League.

Read EvaluationMichael Huntley | Prep Redzone Scout
Jimmerson is explosive out of his stance and can change direction smoothly which caused matchup problems for a lot of the offensive linemen. He was effective taking his first step outside then clubbing inside to get to the quarterback before offensive linemen could post up with their inside foot. Jimmerson often did well getting his arms extended on offensive linemen and throwing a move quickly before they could reset their hands.
