Alex Otero

Alex Otero is a dynamic Class of 2026 running back known for his vision, burst, and ability to bounce outside to gain more yards. A versatile offensive weapon, he combines quick feet with high football IQ, allowing him to contribute both in the run game and as a receiver out of the backfield or in the slot.

His ability to stop-start, bounce runs outside, or squeeze through tight lanes gives him versatility as both a feature back and a change-of-pace option. Off the field, he’s a student of the game who balances academics and athletics with maturity. He embraces discipline, focus, and leadership both on and off the field. A standout student-athlete in the Class of 2026. Coaches praise his work ethic, leadership, and team-first mentality. With aspirations to compete at the collegiate level.
