About Zayden
Expert Analysis
Marcus Benjamin | Prep Redzone Scout
Gamble is a physical defensive back who consistently but instinctively positions himself well to make plays. He understands angles at an elite level and often makes plays on the ball without overpursuing or gambling in a way that could hurt his team.
Gamble could also excel at the nickel position on the college level, as he is an excellent tackler with great balance. His combination of explosiveness and smarts makes him the ideal field general that can give a quarterback fits. The Notre Dame commit projects as a multi-year starter at the Power Four level.

An impressive multi-sport athlete from south Florida, Gamble looks the part of a next-level athlete. He’s put together like a Running Back, but has the capability to play nearly every skill position. Currently 5-foot-10 and 140-pounds, Gamble appears set to make the biggest splash in the secondary right away. Coming off a stellar seventh grade year in football and basketball, he also wow’d on the track winning Most Outstanding Athlete at Calvary Christian. On nearly every play, no matter what position, he displays impressive body control and adjustment ability when the ball is in the air. Like all 2027’s, he has some time before high school, but he should have his pick of schools next year.
