Personal Life

Peyton Woodyard is a winner on and off the field, according to Bellflower (California) St. John Bosco coach Jason Negro. “I think he’s a phenomenal human being,” Negro told DawgNation.com. “That’s what the first thing is. The character he is going to bring to a program. The leadership he is going to bring, and he is a championship-type caliber player. It makes me feel good that our guys are trying to pick the most elite programs in the country to go play college ball for and compete against. I think that’s what his mindset is.” Woodyard developed into a leader for Bosco, one of the elite high school programs in the country, during the 2021 season. In 12 games, he racked up 62 tackles and forced one fumble. He then stepped things up even more in his junior season with 53 tackles, seven pass deflections, one interception and playing some on offense and even on special teams. “He’s very versatile,” Negro said. “He can play all three downs on defense. First, second and third. He can play the single-high safety. He can play the two-high safety. He can play in the box. He’s physical. He can cover slots in the nickel. There’s a lot of versatility to his game.” Away from football, Woodyard enjoys playing baseball, golf, basketball and gaming. He also loves playing the ukulele. Woodyard plans on majoring in management or entrepreneurship in college. His parents are Nora and Gerald Woodyard.
