Noah Gentile Noah Gentile 5'9" | 135 lbs | WR/DB New E turned in a polished and productive showing at the recent Prep Red Zone NEXT showcase, flashing the kind of route-running polish and ball skills that stand out even among younger talent pools. At 5’7″ and 135 pounds, Gentile is on the smaller side for the position, but his football intelligence, body control, and hands more than compensated during the on-field sessions.The standout element of Gentile’s performance was his route-running. He consistently ran smooth, crisp routes with good tempo and acceleration off the line. His routes had natural rhythm — no wasted steps or rounding off breaks — which allowed him to get open consistently against the athletic defenders in attendance.

Gentile’s hands were reliable throughout the day. Evaluators noted his ability to make catches on the boundary as well as in traffic. He tracked the ball well over his shoulder and showed strong concentration when contested, plucking throws away from his frame or securing them through contact. Whether it was a back-shoulder fade near the sideline or a crossing route where defenders closed quickly, Gentile demonstrated confident, secure hands that give quarterbacks trust in tight windows.His frame and length are still developing (typical for a rising 2032 prospect), but he plays bigger than his listed size thanks to good leaping timing and strong hand-eye coordination on contested balls.
