Expert Analysis
Hunter Tierney | Prep Redzone Scout
Reynolds’ night started bumpy when his very first pass was picked despite a good roll out to avoid a free rusher, but from that point on he settled in and looked sharp. He showed how comfortable he is rolling left, which fits with his athletic profile, and every time he decided to tuck and run he did so with a calm, calculated approach like he was mapping out each step. By the time a hamstring injury forced him out, he had gone 8-of-9 for 96 yards with a rushing score, his only incompletion that early interception. It was an efficient, composed showing that matched what people have been raving about with his development this offseason.

Reynolds comes in #1 ranked for a reason, as his film clearly says it all. If you’ve ever watched this kid play, this should come to no surprise as to why he is my #1 QB in 6A. Clemson commit for both football and baseball with an extremely high ceiling that we could very well see playing on Sunday’s within the next 4-5 years. Over 2,200 passing and over 1,400 yards rushing with 41 total TD’s during his junior campaign, and he holds all the potential to put up even bigger numbers this fall.

is just a flat-out competitor. You watch him play and it’s immediately clear he’s not just some athletic quarterback who runs around and makes stuff happen — he’s a real problem under center. There’s a natural poise to how he operates, and the fact that he’s committed to Clemson for both football and baseball tells you everything you need to know about his athleticism. But beyond the raw tools, what really stands out is how tough and composed he is. He’ll hang in the pocket and take a hit if it means delivering the right throw, and when things break down, he doesn’t panic — he adapts. His arm talent’s already impressive, and he’s only getting sharper with each rep. He reads the field well, doesn’t force much, and knows when to take what the defense gives him versus when to strike. And while he can absolutely hurt you with his legs, it’s his decision-making and overall control of the offense that really separate him. He’s a leader in every sense, and it’s not hard to see why national scouts and coaches have taken notice.

Read EvaluationJordan Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Reynolds is a high caliber athlete and a top rated recruit in both football and baseball. 6’2” 220 lbs. with a strong frame and a dual threat skillset. Flashes an excellent ability to improvise and create on broken plays. Possesses natural feel and awareness to escape pressure and either find a target downfield or tuck it and run. The ball jumps out of his hand with high velocity and zip to all three levels using good rotation in his hips and shoulders. That arm strength gives him the ability to make every throw on the field – deep routes to the boundary, opposite hash throws, vertical shots, and off platform throws on the run. Drives the ball into tight windows with timing and anticipation when working the middle of the field. Dangerous as a scrambler and ball carrier, he’s got plus short area quickness and the long speed to cap off runs in the endzone. He’s a competitor that plays hard and will never shy away from contact. Currently the top ranked 2026 prospect in the PRZ state rankings.
