Read EvaluationMatt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Munoz measures in at 6’0 150-pounds and had the most interceptions amongst juniors. The WR/DB had 32 receptions for 560 yards and 7 touchdowns with 16 total tackles (9 solo, 7 assisted), 8 INT (1 for a TD), 4 PD, and 3 punt return touchdowns. He has very good athletic ability due to very good jumping, speed, acceleration, and good change of direction. Good read and reaction time. Very good back pedal due to it being smooth and controlled. Fluid hips matching the wide receiver breaking into their stem. Very good man coverage, sticking like glue. Munoz will use his very good ball tracking and catching, to pluck the ball out of the air getting the interception. He’ll gain yardage after the INT setting his offense up in good position. He’s an exciting prospect looking to capitalize on a productive season.
