Bill Belichick lands one of nation's fastest playmakers in De La Salle's Jaden Jefferson

Posted Jan 22, 2025
There's no substitute for speed, and for De La Salle High School cornerback and running back Jaden Jefferson there's no alternative to winning. Jefferson committed to UNC football coach Bill Belichick on Tuesday. The 5-foot-9, 160-pounder is one of the more explosive playmakers in Northern California, with 10.40-second speed in the 100-meter dash. (Sports Illustrated)
