Platform DFW Podcast Spotlight ATH of the Week
At 6’3” 235 lbs., Jordan Ervin has proven himself as one of the most versatile and dominant athletes in East Texas. A key player for the Henderson Lions, Ervin delivered a phenomenal junior season and is poised for an even bigger senior campaign.
Offensive Impact
- Tight End: Ferocious blocker with a mean streak in the trenches
- Possesses great feet and leverage, allowing him to neutralize defenders
- Strong hands and athleticism make him a legitimate receiving threat, especially in the red zone
- Agile with the speed to attack the middle of the field and create mismatches
Defensive Force
- As a junior, shined as an edge rusher with explosive get-off, bend, and elite closing speed
- Transitioning to middle linebacker in the Lions’ 3-4 defense as a senior
- His ability to roam, run the alleys, and fill gaps makes him a natural playmaker in the heart of the defense
- Already flashed those traits in Henderson’s recent scrimmage, showing instincts and production
Next Level Projection
Committed to Stephen F. Austin University, Ervin brings a rare combination of size, athleticism, and versatility. A true plug-and-play athlete, he has the skill set to excel on either side of the ball at the collegiate level.
