Vote: Northeast Florida high school football player of the week (11/26/2023)
The Florida High School Football Playoffs have begun and we continue our Player of the Week polls for areas all around the state. It's playoff time and plenty of players had some great individual performances in the region finals.
As such, we have 10 athletes nominated this week for the SBLive’s Northeast Florida high school football player of the week award from November 24, and we ask you, the fans, to help decide who should indeed be the top athlete selected. Voting will conclude on Saturday, December 2nd at 11:59 p.m. The winner will be announced in next week's poll.
Editor’s note: Our corresponding poll is intended to be fun, and we do not set limits on how many times a fan can vote during the competition. This poll is specifically for fans to vote on the players that have been nominated and in no way discredits any other player that may not be mentioned in our poll.
Here are the nominations:
