Jesuit's Will Griffin becomes 10th Florida high school QB to throw for 10K yards

TAMPA - Jesuit High School senior quarterback Will Griffin always idolized Florida Gator football legend Tim Tebow.

"I look up to him," Griffin said.

However, it's Tebow that is now looking up at Griffin, at least when it comes to the high school football record books.

What they're saying:

"He's definitely the once in a career type of player," Jesuit head coach Matt Thompson said. "You don't really get it that much. Not as a quarterback. I have not had a quarterback be as special as Will."

In the first game of the 2025 season, Griffin surpassed the 10,000 passing yards career milestone. He is just the 10th player in high school football history in the sunshine state to ever join that club, according to MaxPreps. Tebow finished his career at Nease High School with 9,765 passing yards
