There is something about Mason Widman Mason Widman 5'11" | 180 lbs | LB Gloucester City | 2025 State NJ that just screams old school linebacker/cover 3 safety to me. Aside from his uniform picking up all the dirt, green stains, and mud from playing on a grass-surfaced field, he is a throwback player in the sense of how he delivers vintage hit, wrap, drive tackles; however, Widman varies his tackles by situation. We see Widman deliver low tackles within the tackle box and gator rolls when tackling on an angle. In the trenches we see him typically do a nice job evading would-be blockers as he quickly slips under their blocks. Widman sets a hard edge along the perimeter too, forcing ball carriers to either cut back to the defense’s help or bubble around. What I love most about Widman’s game is his downhill burst once he breaks on either the ball or his read. As a running back Widman follows his blockers through the hole, only bouncing when necessary. His gritty, tough style of play transcends to offense as well as he profiles as a runner who fights for every extra inch of yardage. Despite really liking his game on defense, Widman’s film needs additional clips of him in pass coverage, showing colleges that he is a two-way defender. He can also stand to cut his tape by at least half, if not more. If a college coach is going to watch 15 minutes of anything, it will be game film. Widman went for 1410 rushing yards and 18 carries on 148 carries, while making 50 stops, 4 TFL, 2 Int, 1 sack, and 1 blocked kick on defense.
