Tre Jordan Tre Jordan 6'0" | 185 lbs | DB Calvert Hall | 2021 State MD was very impressive, so impressive that he won Team Maryland MVP. Jordan showed 2 things that really jumped out. His speed and explosiveness were next level and were on display not only on defense but on special teams as well. Jordan used his explosiveness to come downfield and make big hits and tackles in the run game as a safety. He also showed off that explosiveness during punt returns. He even blocked a kick with his pure speed. Jordan is fun to watch and will be an elite player at the FCS level.
