About Matthew
Expert Analysis
Robert Davis | Prep Redzone Scout
Jayne brings a fundamentally sound and disruptive presence to the defensive front. He fires off the ball with purpose, maintaining low pad level and active hands to control his opponent at the line of scrimmage. Jayne finished the season with 35 total tackles, 9 tackles for loss and 8 sacks, production that shows his effectiveness as both a run defender and pass rusher. He shows the ability to anchor against the run while still possessing enough quickness to collapse the pocket. His balance between power and technique makes him a difficult matchup inside. An additional offseason focused on strength, conditioning and camp exposure could significantly raise his recruiting stock. If he builds upon last year’s performance, expect strong FCS programs to take serious notice moving forward.
