balled out once again by being the lock down defender everyone knows him to be.
With this interception, Tymir positioned himself to practically be the primary target on the throw and climbed the ladder to take it away from the receiver. It is a perfect example of how well he can track the ball, compete for it, and stay locked in on a defender throughout the route tree.

may very well be one of the most explosive DBs at this weekend’s event. The last time he was at a Prep Redzone camp, Tymir shocked the crowds with a blazing 4.52 40 yard dash and 4.32 shuttle. With that kind of speed, not many receivers are getting away from him. Back in April of 2025, Tymir was included in one of the most talented DB groups I have ever seen on the field, letting up almost no catches during the one on ones with the receivers. Tymir in particular shined with his fluid hip movement and quick foot work whenever he changed directions. This Seton Hall DB is set up for a big weekend in Elizabeth, NJ.

Tymir was one of the early favorites to take home MVP honors among the defensive backs, and he backed it up with a standout performance. He first caught my eye during the 40-yard dash, where his crisp, natural running form helped him post one of the most impressive times of the day. With a sprinter’s frame, Tymir also showcased quick hips and sharp footwork, allowing him to pivot and break on the ball with ease. When he’s in coverage, getting the ball over the top is going to be a serious challenge.

, who is making the most of his reclass year. The difference between him at the end of last season (December 2023) to when I saw him live again in April 2024 was impressive, but he’s taken it to another level as of October 2024. Plays significantly bigger than the 5-foot-7 and 130-pound frame he lists himself at. Sanders will straight up throw his body around like he’s 6-foot-2 and 200-pounds back at the Safety position.
