Expert Analysis
Corey Bailey | Prep Redzone Scout
Middleton is the most dynamic TE in the state with receiver like ball skills and TE size at 6’6 200lbs. He can stretch the field vertically while providing a physical mismatch up against safeties and linebackers. With the ball in his hands, he has the speed and agility to make defenders miss and gain chunk yardage.

There aren’t many tight ends in the high school game today. Middleton is a rare exception. He is the perfect day modern tight end. He is a great receiver and is a great receiving threat when he lines up in the slot or out wide. He also is as good as a receiver with his hand in the dirt. He is also a solid run blocker. His frame makes him very hard to cover. While blocking his frame allows him to get his hands on defenders before they make a move. He is a very interesting prospect that should dominate the FCS level.

Middleton will be a matchup problem for Seneca Valley. His height, speed, athleticism, and soft hands make him extremely tough to cover. He does a good job of running across the field and finding soft spots in the defense. He is also a good run blocker and can take edge defenders out of the play.
