Jahkeem Stewart is one of the nation’s most prized recruits in the class of 2026. Just a rising junior, he boasts incredible size and strength leading to a fitting nickname.

Over the weekend, the talented defender flexed his muscle while competing at the Rivals Five-Star camp. He had no issue moving the competition – most of which consisted of 300-pound linemen!

Stewart is rated by three of the four major recruiting sites as the top player in his cycle, regardless of position. It’s easy to see why when you turn on the tape.

Possessing a blend of power and speed, he can make even the strongest of opponents look silly. That was on full display in his latest recruiting camp.

Lining up against the best players in their respective classes, he made light work of his foes time and time again.

There’s a reason he goes by the name “Thanos.”

Stewart embraces being called “Thanos.” And just like the Avenger’s archenemy, Stewart destroys everything in front of him.

He lived up to that villainous moniker this weekend.

He seemingly lived in the backfield – a trend that could continue at the next level.

Jahkeem Stewart’s recruitment includes all the heavy hitters.

As noted by the Buckeye gloves in that Rivals clip, Ohio State is a contender as are national powers like LSU, Miami, and USC. The Tigers, to this point, seem to have the most momentum.

That recruitment could take a while to play out considering he’s entering just his junior season – which is hard to believe when you see the 6-6, 275-pound frame.

While he mulls his college choice over, he’s been putting in the work.

No quarterback is safe!

Stewart will continue to perfect his craft while finishing out his high school career. After that, we’ll get a chance to see him disrupt offenses in the Power Five.

He put the world on notice at Rivals camp. You’ve been warned!
