Jacoby Mathews named On3 MVP at Day 3 of Under Armour All-America Game practice
Jacoby Mathews was not in Orlando for very long, but made an instant impact on the few practices. Mathews was a standout in the Team Legends secondary after missing the first practice due to a late arrival. The 6-foot-1, 200-pounder pairs outstanding instincts with coordination, manifesting in a well-rounded skill-set at safety. He had one of the plays of the day on defense, jumping a pass for a pick-six in team drills. Mathews plays as a rover type at the high school level in addition to offense, but has shown some coverage chops in Orlando. He looks like one o the top safety prospects in the 2022 cycle. Mathews is set to make his decision in February and has a final five of Alabama, LSU, Texas A&M, Florida and Texas.
