The Scout
โI think the style of defense Tennessee plays, it is important for them to have guys that can do multiple things on the backend, and with Combay, he is someone with his size, length and ability to be a guy with the proper skillset on the backend. He plays high-level, competitive football at the prep level and is as seasoned as it will come. He is a guy that made a lot of playsโclose to 100 tackles as a Junior.โ

โJowell Combay is a big, instinctive safety with physicality and ball skills. I think what impresses me about him is his ability to read routes. You see him jump routes and make plays on the ball. I think he had ten pass breakups as Junior. He also plays offense which you like to see. He is physical in run support. Really like the physicality and skillset. He is a guy who could roll down into the box as he gets bigger. He has the skills to make plays in coverage. He is a really nice pickup for Tennessee.โ
