Expert Analysis
Hunter Tierney | Prep Redzone Scout
Xavier’s game is built around movement and control. He’s got really quick feet and smooth hips, which makes him a tough matchup for anyone trying to shake him in space. He stays low and fluid in his backpedal, which lets him mirror routes for a long time without needing to bail early or guess. That kind of patience is hard to find in younger DBs, especially ones still developing physically. There are times he’ll peek into the backfield a little too long and lose a step, but his speed shows up when he needs it most. He’s got the recovery ability to close gaps quickly and make up for small mistakes, which keeps him in position to still make plays. He just moves fluidly across the field — he doesn’t waste steps, and you can see how confidently he plants and drives on the ball. As he continues to grow and sharpen up some of the technical stuff — like eye discipline and route anticipation — he’s got all the tools to be a difference-maker in the secondary.
