Caleb Herring

Caleb Herring became one of the most dominating football players in Tennessee high school football early on in his career. But over time, he really refined his game and it helped him rack up 24 tackles for a loss and seven sacks in 2021. “He grew so fast, it took him a while to figure out how to use his body,” Riverdale coach Will Kriesky told Volquest.com. “And he’s really just now learned how to use his body, so he’s able to be more dominant. You can do a lot of things with him. He can come off the edge, or he can play in a little bit of space if he needs to. His range is so long and he’s developed into a special player.” A special player that will follow his brother Elijah Herring to Rocky Top. Herring plans on majoring in agriculture in college. His parents are Tiffany Denise Herring and Nicholas Herring. He has another sibling, Noah Herring.

Caleb Herring is a tall, rangy and athletic EDGE prospect who looks reminds us a bit of Randy Gregory when he was at Arizona Western College in the 2013 cycle. Like Gregory, Herring has considerable room to fill out once he gets in a college strength program. Both showed off their athleticism as pass rushers and in making plays in pursuit.

Power 4

Blue-chip traits — a high-priority Power 4 target with the tools to contribute early at the highest level.

Blue Chip

The top of the scale — national-caliber talent that every major program pursues, with a clear NFL trajectory.

Elite / Top 100

Edge rusher that thrives in open space and flies to the football. Has an ideal frame with elite length at 6-foot-5, 220 pounds with a 35.25-inch arm. A fluid, natural athlete. Often lines up as an off-ball linebacker, despite projecting as a pass rusher long-term. Plays basketball and baseball during the offseason. The movement skills from those sports translates to the football field when working in the slot and in the flat. Terrific closing speed and ability to bend the corner. Active player that has a nose for the football. Lacks ideal mass in his lowers in order to generate power. Tallied 18 tackles for loss as a senior. Will need a couple years to physically develop in order to reach his ceiling, but has immense potential. One of the younger prospects for his position in the 2023 class, turning 18 years-old in the June after his senior year.
