Thomas Transcends Transfer Troubles
Westfield Bulldogs' Jordan Thomas made an instant impact on the field, recording 12 tackles for loss in just four games as a sophomore in the 6A classification.

As the Bulldogs look to build on their 2025 playoff run, Thomas will be a key factor in their success. Scouts are watching for Thomas to continue his development and refine his pass-rushing skills, which could make him a top prospect for college programs. His ability to quickly adjust to a new environment and thrive in a new league has already generated buzz among college scouts, who are eager to see how he will perform in the upcoming season.
