Previously ranked as a WR, Clary is also a standout defensive back for the Flying Eagles and can produce at a high level on both sides of the ball. This warranted a position change to ATH in the rankings to recognize said versatility properly, and gives colleges some options for where he could fit into their program with the size and athleticism to give him a high ceiling at several different positions.”

This was the first time getting to see 2026 Woodrow Wilson WR/DB Preston Clary Preston Clary 6'3" | 170 lbs | ATH/DB Woodrow Wilson | 2026 State WV in person, and he made a strong impression on me. Clary has a high ceiling at either position at the next level and came on strong as a junior last season. Catch opportunities are limited in Woodrow’s offense, but Clary has the size, athleticism, and ability to play receiver at a high level in college. He got reps at both during 1-on-1s at the Fairmont State Elite Camp and looked impressive at both positions. He hasn’t posted an offer from the Falcons yet, but I’d be surprised if it didn’t come soon, at least publicly.

His time as a basketball player is very apparent when watching his film as he showed very good ball skills and leaping ability to secure catches. Watch for Clary to be a sleeper prospect in this class if he continues to put in time to develop as a football player.
