Signing Day Flashback: WR Nedrick Boldin sees himself making impact at Boston College 

CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – There are several words that can accurately describe Nedrick Boldin.

He is dependable, reliable, consistent, and clutch. Coaches and players alike say that about him all the time.

The Pahokee native has proven himself to be the most steadfast player on Palm Beach Central’s roster for all four years of his high school football career. It was most evident in his senior season, as he posted the following statistics in 12 games played:

RECEIVING 

•47 receptions, 737 yards, 7 touchdowns 

RUSHING

•14 carries, 84 yards, 1 touchdown 

DEFENSE

•7 tackles, 1 tackle for loss

SPECIAL TEAMS

•1 blocked field goal

•4 kickoff returns for 75 yards

•7 punt returns for 79 yards

BEST INDIVIDUAL GAME: Class 7A-Region 3 semifinal against Vero Beach in 21-20 home loss

OFFENSE

•8 receptions, 115 yards, 1 touchdown 

•3 carries, 20 yards

SPECIAL TEAMS

•2 kickoff returns for 58 yards

•1 punt return for 8 yards

TOTALS

•201 total yards, 1 touchdown 

Boldin reflected on his senior season at Palm Beach Central:

“I mean it was an unreal experience,” the 6-foot, 180-pound wide receiver said. “From having the best team in the county then going through so many changes in the middle of the season, it was all unreal. You had to take things one day at a time. But shoutout to Coach [Kevin] Thompson and the entire coaching staff because they kept us together and never stopped believing in us.”

Boldin finished as our No. 3-ranked player from the Muck and No. 12-ranked overall player in Palm Beach County for the Class of 2025.

Now that his decorated high school football has officially come to a close, Boldin’s focus is solely on Boston College.

The Muckstepper signed with the ACC school on Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2024 – Early National Signing Day – at Palm Beach Central’s High School. He spoke on why this was the right move for him.

“I mean it was the coaching staff,” Boldin said of Boston College head coach Bill O’Brien and his staffers. “They made it feel like family. They care about their players. And to play under a coach who has been in the NFL, it will prepare me the most.”

About a month later, Boldin was officially a college student as an early enrollee at Boston College.

And moving forward, our Palm Beach Central legend will be laser focused on doing whatever is necessary to make a lasting impact on the next level.

We wish Boldin nothing but the best in all of his current and future endeavors.
