Gorney’s Take: Jahkeem Stewart has been so dominant for so long at defensive end that he would have been a five-star prospect in the 2024 class. He has NFL size and toughness, and what makes Stewart even more special is that he has a dominant mindset where he wants to go out every day to prove he’s the best. His people are asking where some of the best offensive tackles are going to camp this offseason because Stewart wants to test himself against the best.
Not only does Stewart have all the physical tools to be one of the best defensive ends in a long time but he also has the focus to be really special in the years to come.
In February, the No. 1 prospect in the 2026 class released his top 15 but Texas, USC and Oregon have been the schools standing out most. LSU also should be considered near the top group since he’s an elite talent from New Orleans (La.) St. Augustine.
