Xavier Sabb Xavier Sabb 6'1" | 180 lbs | ATH Glassboro | 2027 State NJ from Glassboro, standing at 6’1” and weighing 185 pounds, Xavier consistently makes acrobatic plays. His camp highlights showcase his exceptional hands and the types of plays he can make. On the football field, he displays a high level of dynamism. Xavier can win down the field, has excellent body control, and excels in the short and intermediate areas.

With the arrival of Kenny Smith Kenny Smith 5'11" | 175 lbs | RB Glassboro | 2025 State NJ , formerly of Hammonton, Glassboro’s running game is expected to become more dynamic. This could limit Xavier’s opportunities, but as Glassboro’s number-one option in the passing game, he should see plenty of action. Last year, Xavier had 38 receptions. This season, he is projected to be in the 50-60 range. If he reaches that mark, Xavier will be in prime position to lead New Jersey in receptions.

The younger of the two Sabb’s on the roster, Xavier Sabb Xavier Sabb 6'1" | 180 lbs | ATH Glassboro | 2027 State NJ is not only a top talent for Glassboro but is the consensus top prospect coming out of NJ’s 2027 class. Arguably the most dangerous athlete in the state, Xavier dominates every facet of the game. A deadly return man, Xavier lit up specials teams in 2023 as he weaved his way to 5 touchdowns between kickoffs and punts. Hard to bring to the ground, Xavier is slippery with the ball in his hands and always finds a way to shake loose from the would-be tackler. Xavier racked up 609 receiving yards and 6 touchdowns, and even snagged two interceptions when he lined up in the secondary. Xavier is an athlete in the truest sense.

The top player in the 2027 class coming out of NJ, Xavier Sabb Xavier Sabb 6'1" | 180 lbs | ATH Glassboro | 2027 State NJ is an all-around athlete that will be garnishing a lot of attention very soon. The third freshman to be highlighted from Glassboro’s 2027 class, Xavier was deadly last season not only as a receiver but as a return man as well. Taking the ball to the endzone 2 times on the kickoff and 3 times as a punt returner, Xavier was a headache for all special team coordinators he faced as it was always difficult to close in on Xavier once the ball was in his hands. Xavier can truly stop on a dime and move in the opposite direction seamlessly.

As a receiver, he found the end zone 7 times and amassed 657 receiving yards. Being a long stride runner, Xavier had break away speed that made it impossible for any defender to try to catch him. The Sabb family is one of the most talented football families in the state.
