What we learned from Nebraska's 2026 Signing Day press conference

Malcolm Simpson

Coaches at Galveston Ball High School rave about Malcolm Simpson's impact both on and off the field. "He's an excellent player, prospect and even better person," a Ball assistant coach told On3. As talented as he is on the football field – district 9-5A I newcomer of the year as a sophomore – he's just as good on the basketball court. Simpson was named the defensive player of the year for his district during the 2022-2023 season.

Malcolm Simpson's measurables, physical tools, and on-field strengths remind us of Kris Jenkins.

Not enough on film yet to project a level. Add more game film and verified measurables to unlock a full projection.

Undetermined

A developmental projection today — keep adding film, measurables, and reps, and your evaluation grows with your game.

D-III / Dev

Scholarship-caliber traits for Division II and NAIA programs, with room to climb through continued development.

D-II / NAIA

Scholarship traits at the FCS level, with room to climb through continued development and film.

Starter-caliber traits for a Power 4 program (SEC, Big Ten, Big 12, ACC). Squarely on major-conference radars.

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

Versatile, athletic defender with considerable untapped potential. Measured around 6-foot-3, 265 pounds prior to his senior season. Has plus length with arms that measure over 34 inches and a frame to continue adding weight. Fantastic functional athlete at his size with quickness and fluidity.  Lined up on the edge, the interior, and even at off-ball linebacker as a senior. Disruptive interior pass rusher. Shows speed-to-power ability. Outstanding closing speed and showed encouraging strain while chasing plays in pursuit. Best year of high school football as a senior after transferring to Hitchcock (Texas) High. Doubles as a very good high school basketball player who regularly scores in double figures and shows above-the-rim bounce. Will need to continue developing physically and adding to the technical side of his game. A high ceiling prospect with a lower floor considering his lack of proven production year-over-year.
