About Peyton
Expert Analysis
Matt DeBary | Prep Redzone Scout
A quick-reacting linebacker in metro-Atlanta who really opened a lot of eyes last season as a freshman, Key brings impressive size at 6-foot-2 205-pounds and knows how to chase down the running back. He reacts without thinking, allowing him to dissect plays and attack the ball-carrier. He’s a sure-tackler who sure didn’t play like a first-year player during the 2025 season. The Lithonia defender made 55 tackles and five TFLs with one INT and one forced fumble. He’ll be an easy addition and will see a bump higher in the latest 2029 rankings update.
