Perryville has had a wonderful season at 9-2 this year and has a strong run for state’s in the 1A class. I have previously talked about Jordon Jones Jordon Jones 5'10" | 180 lbs | RB Red Lion Christian (DE) | 2027 State MD and Jayden Byard Jayden Byard 6'1" | 180 lbs | DB Perryville | 2026 State MD and the impact they’ve had for Perryville, but their most important/ impactful player on the defensive side all year has been Tayshawn. His play at LB and being a tackling machine will be a key part to Perryville’s success these playoffs.

Tyshawn as previously mentioned racks up the tackles, he is 2nd in Class 1A in total tackles with 111 tackles. While also having an impressive 22 TFLs and adding in 2.5 sacks on the year. A nice size player at 6’1″ 200lbs+, Tayshawn can play inside or off the edge at the LB position. His style of play fits today’s game very well, with nice athleticism, change of direction, and he just flies around the field getting to the ball quickly. Tayshawn plays with nice burst, able to blitz up the middle or from the and being a disruptor leading to all those TFLs. If he continues the play as a havoc LB he will make it tough for opponents to make any ground on offense and continue to be one of Perryville’s most important players in these playoffs. Currently holding a few D2/D3 offers, I expect a busy winter recruiting period for Tayshawn as I see him as a FCS or high level D2 $$ kid.
