KianNezhad.

Kian Nezhad is a 2030 defensive tackle and offensive tackle at Westwood High School in Westwood, Massachusetts, and he already has something on record that most freshmen do not: a game where he got to the quarterback twice. Two sacks against Dover-Sherborn is a real data point for a first-year interior defender. Sacks from the inside are harder to come by than from the edge — there is less room, more help, and the quarterback is usually moving away from you — so an interior freshman recording two in a single game was beating a high school guard cleanly rather than being left unblocked. His film from that game and a scrimmage is posted alongside it. At 5'11 and 209 pounds he is built low, which on the interior is where leverage comes from, and he is listed at offensive tackle as a second position — the kind of two-way workload that gets a young lineman more snaps and more film than a specialist at either spot would see. Nezhad wears No. 79 and carries a two-star ONE11 rating. He is a freshman in the 2030 class, so the point of the profile is that every measurable and every game he adds from here builds a curve a college staff can follow from the start.
