Jimmy Lezza '24 Recruiting Profile

I believe that I am very different compared to other players on and off the field. I like to think that I am one of the smartest play/formation reading players on the field. Along with one of the best tacklers on the team as I should be as linebacker. My size helps me tremendously as I am able to shed blocks, get low and make tackles on the runner. I also pride myself in my agility and being able to make it across the field, and drop into zone or man coverage.

Off the field I also feel I am a leader, and encourage others to be a good person, and teammate. I have volunteered at multiple events including (but not limited to) : VFW, Feed My Starving Children, Kids Football Camps, Church activities, etc. I believe that on any team I could physically be apart of helping win games, and let others know what I may see on the field. Along with spread my positivity and willingness to put others in front of myself if need be. 

P.S I would also like to mention through the summer of 22’ I was randomly  diagnosed with a rare condition that put a pause to my training and hospitalized me for nearly a month. Even though this setback I came back within 2 months which was likely unheard of with this condition. It does not affect me anymore and should not bottleneck at all in performance of mentally.
