Faizon Brandon’s Knoxville Camp Blends Charity, Competition and Community

The Tennessee quarterback prospect organized a youth football camp that raised $12,520 for the Tennessee Children’s Home, drawing praise from local coaches and highlighting his commitment to giving back.

Tennessee quarterback prospect Faizon Brandon, a five‑star freshman and the No. 3 overall recruit in the 2026 class, recently hosted a youth football camp in Knoxville that drew more than 100 local children.

The event was built around fun, competition and learning, with each camper receiving a T‑shirt and an autographed camp card. Brandon used the platform to give back, matching donations that ultimately raised $12,520 for the Tennessee Children’s Home.

Competing with George MacIntyre for the starting quarterback spot, Brandon brings a 35‑1 record and back‑to‑back state titles from Grimsley High School to the conversation, while also emphasizing his commitment to community service.

Coach Josh Jones lauds the camp’s talent and spirit

Knoxville Catholic High School coach Josh Jones, who helped run the camp, praised the participants’ ability and highlighted the positive atmosphere that blended drills with mentorship.

Brandon’s outreach mirrors his earlier camp in Greensboro, where he similarly combined skill development with charitable fundraising, reinforcing a mission that extends beyond the field.
