This past spring, I was lucky enough to get a great in-person look at Kingston Nixon Kingston Nixon 5'10" | 175 lbs | DB/ATH Grand Ledge | 2027 State MI at an MHSAA Evaluation Camp.

Now, we have a little bit of game film from Kingston! Unsurprisingly, most of these highlights are run stops. Kingston checks some of the most important boxes when it comes to stopping the run. First off, he’s a sound tackler. Plays like 0:49 and 0:57 show good 1-on-1 open-field tackling. Good job wrapping up and securing the ball carrier. Furthermore, Kingston’s play recognition is about average. He gets the job done, but could react a little bit faster.

There are also some offensive highlights. 0:24 shows a deep crosser, beating man coverage for an 88-yard gain. 1:11 seems like a bit of a broken play, but Kingston does a nice job improvising, making a good catch, and earning good yardage before the fumble.

I like Kinston’s tackling and his offensive explosiveness. I’ve always loved Kingston’s upside, and look forward to seeing him continue to improve and break out throughout this season.
