is a sneaky good prospect that you need to keep your eye on moving forward. He has the frame, physical tools and traits to become a Division I-level player by the time he graduates from Gallatin. He’s taken on a larger role this season, where he’s been a good player.
In six games this season, he has 23 tackles, one interception and has played good coverage along the way. He has a good looking frame for his age and position, standing 6-foot and weighing 150 pounds. Malone possesses a longer frame, which excites me for his future.
He’s a good coverage player with solid technique, good footwork and nice instincts. Malone is also a willing tackler, which seems to go under the radar. You always want to find defensive backs who are not afraid to do the dirty work. I’d like to see him develop into a more polished player, but the physical tools are there.

, a defensive back/wide receiver at Gallatin High School. Malone made his presence known on both sides, impressing me on nearly all of his reps. With great size, speed, and a great wingspan, Malone is definitely a rising talent to keep an eye on during tournament season.
Selected All-County as a seventh-grader in 2023 and again as an eighth-grader in 2024
One of five Shafer Middle School prospects selected to the All-County Team for consecutive years, which is tied (with TW Hunter Middle School) for the most multi-year selections
Part of a juggernaut team that took care of business on both sides of the ball, averaging 32 points per game while giving up less than seven per game–including five shutouts
The smallest of the Shafer prospects to be named All-County twice (listed at 5-foot-6 and 120-pounds as of November 2024) he used quickness and ball skills to make a difference on the field. A natural as a Slot and a ballhawking Cornerback, he made plays on both offense and defense
