Read EvaluationJordan Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
A sharp cover corner with ideal size, length, and speed at 6’2” 170 lbs. He’s got great range to cover all areas of the field effectively. Uses his length to his advantage by being aggressive with his hands and playing the ball at the catch point. A plus athlete that can run and shows good fluidity in his movement and hips. Shoes he can smoothly transitions out of his back pedal to turn and run while also being able to change directions and accelerate to close space coming out of his break. Plays with good pad level and leverage. He also shows good technique and footwork throughout the play to limit separation and maintain positioning. High caliber prospect that holds six D1 offers from New Mexico State, NAU, Colorado State, UConn, San Jose State, and UNLV. Expect more P4 programs to offer.
