Expert Analysis
Matt DeBary | Prep Redzone Scout
A tough, hard-hitting safety for the mighty Cartersville Purple Hurricanes, Ezell is a fundamentally sound defender who shows strong instincts and toughness from the secondary. He’s a versatile defender with a solid 6-foot-1 200-pound frame who plays like a linebacker. He takes on blocks, reads the play, and knows how to run down the ball-carrier. The rising senior made 30+ tackles and one INT last season and should see those numbers increase as a senior in 2025.
