Jordan Phillips

A spark plug in the middle. Uses initial burst to shoot into the backfield and make stops. Lacks desired length, but plays with a lower center of gravity and knows how to find leverage. Wins time after time on Friday nights with a simple bullrush. Has experience facing double teams and is somewhat scheme versatile having worked in different alignments throughout his high school career. Limited testing data available, but appears to be a pretty explosive athlete and one that can move some iron having qualified for Sunshine State’s 3A state weightlifting meet as a junior (320 bench press, 315 clean and jerk at 295 pounds). Also a state-ranked wrestler. Totaled eight sacks and 12 quarterback hurries through the first five games of his senior season. Also got snaps at tight end. Will need to develop some more pass rushing moves and learn how to get off college-sized blockers as he’s a tad on the smaller side, but looks like the type of interior defensive lineman that will be able to make an impact at the Power 5 level. Could work his way into the rotation early on in his college career as he's a bit ahead of the curve.
