Continue Reading2020 was a crazy year for everyone that is without a doubt. No one, however, had it tougher than these seniors of 2021. The recruiting scene was out of the ordinary, to say the least.
We feel here at Prep Redzone that it is our duty to help bring exposure to some of the well-deserved athletes who may not have been given a fair shot at an entire season this year. We hope to bring them exposure, as they did not get to showcase their talents as much as they should have been able to this past season due to COVID. So we have highlighted a few DBS who we have ranked on our list of 2021 DBS List.
If you like this article and would like to show your support for these seniors, re-post. or re-tweet this article and tag us in it @PrepRedzoneMO and @LoboRecruits on Twitter.
Dominic Flint Dominic Flint 5'10" | 165 lbs | DB St. Charles West | 2021 State MO – St. Charles West High School
Dominic is an athlete. He plays on Offense at halfback, Defense at DB, and is used as a return man. This guy can do it all, he plays well on both sides of the ball. We have listed him at DB however, I think he could fit in on any team looking to add a good utility player to their roster. He shows flashes of speed and quickness, has great hands, and can also make defenders miss in the open field His hand’s skills translate to the defensive side of the ball where he is able to make big plays happen. Good at zone coverage shows good press ability as well on the LOS.

Christopher Rhodes Christopher Rhodes 6'0" | 160 lbs | DB Independence Truman | 2021 State MO – Truman High School
Great player at both WR & DB. Christopher can press the line of scrimmage and covers well one on one. He can look back and retrieve the ball and catch it at the apex on defense as well on offense. Playing WR gives him an advantage on defense and it shows when he locks opposing receivers up.
Couldn’t be more blessed to be where I’m at and for where I’m going!💙

Ethan Phillips Ethan Phillips 6'0" | 155 lbs | DB Fox | 2021 MO – Fox High School
Tall lengthy DB at 6’1. Runs a 4.7 40 yard dash but plays faster on the field come game time. His game-time speed is one of the best on the list. He can press the line of scrimmage and has great situational awareness. This DB could be a great addition to the locker room for any division II or III university.
Darius Johnson Darius Johnson 6'1" | 175 lbs | DB Belton | 2021 MO –Belton High School
He can block punts for you and has enough speed to take the ball to the end-zone. He is also great at receiver, he can run dangerous routes that will break some ankles. Tall and lengthy for a DB at 6’1, he looks bigger than that on the field because of his vertical ability and his arm length span. Overall terrific athlete, and would be a steal of a prospect for any university.

Robert Rezex Robert Rezex 5'11" | 180 lbs | DB Fort Zumwalt North | 2021 State MO
One of the best covering DBs on this list. Robert can cover man to man, zone coverage, and can track the ball terrific to make plays. Shows great technique. Drives well on passes thrown in front of him, he knows how to bait the quarterback. Shows he can be very physical with receivers in routes.
