Nash Gearhart Nash Gearhart 6'1" | 210 lbs | LB/EDGE Fairhope | 2028 AL is a talented up-and-coming LB from Fairhope who made a big impact on his team’s defense this past fall.
“Gearhart is such a disruptive force on Fairhope’s defense. He can rush the passer, defend the run, and even drop into coverage and make plays. I’m seriously impressed with how he finds his way into the backfield. He has a dominant blend of speed, power, and aggression he uses to work around offensive linemen and create huge stops behind the line of scrimmage.
Gearhart isn’t some one-trick pony. He has some seriously impressive skills in coverage that allow him to be an even bigger threat to opposing offenses. He does a great job dropping back and staying with quicker targets downfield, and consistently finds ways to get hands on the ball and create splash plays.”
Gearhart had a big year, recording 48 total tackles (16 for loss), 4 sacks, 17 hurries, 2 PBUs, and one FF/BLK PT.
I hadn’t watched Gearhart before this week, but man, he’s an impressive defender. Be sure to check out his film below, and look out for him next season.
