Pittsburg (Calif.) four-star quarterback Jaden Rashada hasn’t needed to do too much the last two weeks as his high school as faced some easier matchups.

But Rashada was still able to make some plays in his time on the field Friday against Oakley (Calif.) Freedom, which Pittsburg High won 62-0.

He threw for 198 yards on 12 completions, two of which went for touchdowns. He also added 25 rushing yards on the ground.

Rashada is the No. 60 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

The Miami recruit currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $469k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

Jaden Rashada Scouting Summary

Thinner-framed passer with impressive arm talent that keeps his cool when facing pressure. Has the arm strength to drive the ball downfield and into tight windows. Possesses the functional movement skills to escape the pass rush. Three-level passer who has the ability to layer the football. Productive player last season throwing for 2,220 yards and 27 touchdowns to 5 interceptions. Can be inconsistent with his ball placement, but showed flashes of improvement in camp and 7-on-7 settings this spring. Should develop quicker processing with more reps in the same offense after playing in three different systems. Played his freshman season at Liberty HS before transferring to IMG Academy for his sophomore season. Transferred back to California and played his junior season at Pittsburg HS. On the older end of the spectrum for quarterbacks in his class. Has the physical tools and arm talent to become the face of an elite-level power five program.
