The 5’9 170 SR ATH has had a breakout Senior season for the Raiders. He has rushed for over 1200 yards and added 350 receiving yards with 11 TDs. Thompson also handles the kick return duties accounting for over 200 return yards. He eclipsed the 100-yd all purpose yard mark in 11 of Walton’s first 12 games with performance last week vs East Coweta, rushing for 266 1st half yards.
Thompson shows great instincts and elusiveness out of the backfield. A quick burst that gets him to the next level quickly. He does a excellent job catching the ball as a checkdown option.

A sleeper Cobb County back who showed above-average burst and elusiveness last fall, this Walton Raider back ran for a respectable 566 yards and five touchdowns last fall as a junior. He’s quick, can change directions quickly, and has enough speed to break off a big run. He has a chance to see plenty of carries next fall as a senior and will see a new ranking come his way in the next 2026 Prep Redzone rankings. He also has a chance to be one of the region’s leading rushers in his final season.
