After fan voting, Rocky Mountain’s Jax Tanner has been voted High School On SI’s Idaho Player of the Year. Tanner won the voting with 51,152 votes casted.

Vote: Who was the 2024 Idaho Football Player of the Year?

Jax Tanner, OL/DL, Rocky Mountain 

Chosen as the state's Gatorade Player of the Year, there's a lot to like about the 6-foot-4, 275-pound lineman from Rocky Mountain. In his junior season, the bulldozer of a lineman paved the way for Rocky Mountain's offense in a major way, compiling an astounding 115 pancake blocks. Don't think because he plays in Idaho that he's not getting any national attention, as Tanner already has offers from Boise State, Boston College, BYU and Michigan among them.
