Murfreesboro (Tenn.) Riverdale four-star EDGE Caleb Herring is one of the best pass rushers in the 2023 class. The Tennessee commit showed he can get in the backfield on Thursday night against Murfreesboro (Tenn.) Siegel.

After the snap, Herring took off towards the quarterback. He eventually recorded a sack, his second of the first quarter. Volunteers head coach Josh Heupel and special teams coordinator and outside linebackers coach Mike Ekeler are in attendance at Herring’s game.

Caleb Herring On3 Scouting Summary

The following is the On3 Scouting Summary for Caleb Herring:

“Edge rusher that thrives in open space and flies to the football. Plays basketball and baseball during the offseason. The movement skills from those sports translates to the football field when working in the slot and in the flat. Terrific closing speed and ability to bend the corner. Active player that has a nose for the football. Lacks ideal mass in his lowers in order to generate power. Will need a couple years to physically develop in order to reach his ceiling, but has immense potential. One of the younger prospects for his position in the 2023 class.”
