About Montre
Expert Analysis
Alin Edouard | Prep Redzone Scout
Montre displayed strong instincts and competitiveness in the defensive back group. In individual drills, he showed clean transitions out of his backpedal and good control when flipping his hips to match route breaks.
During one-on-one competition, he competed with confidence and physical presence. He stayed disciplined in his leverage, used active hands to disrupt timing, and reacted quickly when the ball was in the air. Even when facing quick or shifty receivers, he remained composed and worked to stay in position.

All it took was one 10 second clip for me to be really interested in what Jackson brings to the table as a football player. After doing more research on the Brandenburg Middle School student-athlete, my eyes were right…he can go. At 6-foot and 155-pounds he has really good length and size for just being in the eighth-grade. However, what separates him from other promising prospects gifted with that size, is his speed. Jackson makes everybody else on the field look like they are moving in slow motion right now. Whether he’s lined up at Wide Receiver and taking a simple slant to the house or playing defense and chasing down plays from behind, his speed is unmatched. He’s been verified at a 10.8 in the 100M and 22.5 in the 200M, making him not only one of the fastest kids in the DFW Metroplex, but in the entire state. Early indications are him becoming a big time Wide Receiver prospect but there’s something about him as an Outside Linebacker/Safety/Rover type of player that has me fired up. Stay tuned here.
