Winterbottom has a 3-minute mid-season tape on Hudl that I implore anyone interested to take a peek at. Plymouth Whitemarsh likes to deploy its players in some of the more creative sets I’ve seen in Montgomery County. Winterbottom’s ability to serve as a weapon on the ground as well as the air perfectly suits this offense that utilizes both creativity of the mind and the versatility of it’s players. Screens, seams, outs, Winterbottom can be tasked with running any of the routes listed above. Can be trusted to catch the football too. Has a natural feel for the back position, this shows itself with patience after the handoff, as well as pacing in the open-field. Bit of a one-cut approach, the kid carries a load so agility isn’t his calling card. Upfield in a hurry. Agility and speed don’t equate, Winterbottom might not be Shady McCoy in the front-seven, yet Winterbottom can hit another gear if you let him open up his stride. I imagine he’s a lock for PSAC schools out East. Would be a welcomed addition to any of the local programs.
