A sleeper linebacker to keep a close eye on this fall, Holton may play in a small town, but his instincts, aggressive style, and ability to make a strong tackle has allowed him to be added to the latest 2028 Prep Redzone rankings. He’s coming off a really strong freshman season where he was one of the more productive linebackers across the state for his class. The 5-foot-11 190-pounder made an eye-opening 80 total tackles, 11 TFLs and three QB hurries. He made at least six tackles in every game and should be even better as a sophomore in 2025. He’s now ranked as the No. 14 LB and the No. 123 overall prospect in the state.
