Zehel plays RB/WR/FS measures in at 5’7 145-pounds and is looking to make an impact in the first game. He has good athletic ability due to very good balance, good acceleration, speed, and change of direction. As a running back, he displays good vision. If one gap is covered, uses his change of direction to pivot into the open gap. Good outside running skills. Zehel shines with gaining yards after contact. Uses his contact balance to keep churning forward and brining defenders with him. As a receiver, he displays good release against both the press jam and off coverage. Good separation quickness. Very good ball adjustment and good catching. Good ball tracking as well. Zehel is also not afraid of getting his hands dirty while blocking. Intriguing young prospect to watch out for!
Zehel is a developing prospect for Vista Ridge. Plays RB/WR/FS. Measures in at 5’7 145-pounds. Zehel displays good athletic ability due to very good balance, good acceleration, speed, and change of direction. He has good vision with good inside running. While there’s room to grow, Zehel already exhibits traits that will propel him forward. Such as his balance and ball adjustment skills. Zehel uses his very good balance to churn forward for extra yards, breaking tackles or using a good spin move for extra yards. Very good ball adjustment skills. He’ll pluck the ball thrown above or below him. He has also shown a willingness to block for his teammates and gets physical with his opponents while doing so. As a safety, he demonstrates good read and reaction speed with solid tackling. I’m intrigued to see how he continues to develop and gain more opportunities to showcase his skills.
