Watson rushed for 2,200 yards and 32 touchdowns while adding 114 tackles and 20 TFLs on defense while lifting his team to a Class AA State Championship appearance. He has the ideal combination of size and athleticism to play linebacker at the D1 level where he’s gotten some looks this year. Watson finishes in our 2025 rankings as a Top 20 prospect and the #3 LB in the class with one of the highest upsides among seniors for the next level. Watson is quiet on social media last posting an offer from D1 VMI in July, but we expect there’s been more interest from that level behind the scenes.
