  2. Eddrick Houston shows off play strength against Marietta

    Charles Power9/23/22

    Eddrick Houston has been a stalwart on a dominant defensive unit at Georgia powerhouse Buford High this season. The 6-foot-3, 255-pounder hasn’t slowed down since flashing in Buford’s nationally-televised season opener. On Friday, he tallied three tackles for loss, two sacks and three pressures in a 14-0 win over Marietta (Ga.) High. Houston’s considerable play strength and physicality results in a highly disruptive defender at the high school level. It remains to be seen where he’ll end up from a size and positional perspective, but there’s no question Houston is having a strong start to his junior season.
