Hughley (18 college offers at this time) reacted to his most recent recognitions on the national level.

“i was excited because the day before I was just talking to my homeboy about it,” Hughley said. “I was like, “Bro I’m just waiting for my time to come.” I balled this season. Just gotta stay patient and keep grinding. God is in control.”

This past weekend (March 16-17), Hughley led the Reign 7-on-7 offseason team – powered by Football Hotbed – in a tournament that took place in Atlanta.

Watch a key touchdown pass that Hughley threw to Glades Central ‘26 wide receiver Leslie Mosley.

“Well before the play, it was like second down and I knew the blitz was coming,” Hughley said. “So I told my wide receivers to get open. I didn’t expect myself to make that big play. I was just trying to scramble out the pocket. Just pulled a move out my bag.”

SIDE NOTE: The next major event this offseason for Hughley will be the Rivals Camp Series on Sunday, April 7 in Miami.
