Coach Says: Jaden is a returning 2-way starter at WR and Corner. He is one of our most experienced returning varsity players. He was second in interceptions from a year ago and 4th in receiving yards. We expect Jaden to be a key piece of our offense and return game. We are excited for him to take the next step with the departure of our leading receivers. We are excited for what he can bring in all three phases of the game.
