Expert Analysis
Oliver West | Prep Redzone Scout
I’ve been hearing nothing but good things about Forest Lake RB Leyton Patzer during this fall, and the production and film back up the positive sentiments that have been swirling around the senior in 2023. At a quick and powerful 5’8, 175 lbs., Patzer has posted 194 rushes for 1,196 yards and 10 TDs at a 6.2 YPC clip and 150 YPG average. He’s been putting in work since he became an upperclassman and is coming off an impressive junior campaign in 2022, but he’s done nothing but increase and raise his stock as a now-senior. We’re still waiting for some updated film on the senior, which I hope comes soon. Still no offers yet, but that will surely change soon as well. Can’t wait to see this kid’s tape!

Read EvaluationBrian Jerzak | Prep Redzone Scout
Another runner with nearly 1100 yards rushing last season, Patzer does a little bit of everything for the Rangers’ offense out of the backfield. He shows all the tools. He has quick feet in the hole and can dance through traffic at the line of scrimmage. He has the speed to run away from most defenders who think they might have an angle on him. His jump cuts in the open field are up there with the best in the state, but he is just as likely to run over a defender as he is likely to run around them. Patzer is a weapon in the passing game too. The coaching staff had no problem throwing the ball to him out of the backfield. Down near the goal line, the soon-to-be senior is tough to keep out of the end zone when he lines up at quarterback and takes the shotgun snap.
