Gaining the Edge: Jaden Gibson breaks records in Rabun County win

By AccessWDUN Staff | Video by Seth Chapman

TIGER, Ga. — Jaden Gibson has been on the path to breaking the career receiving yards state record since Game 1.

He not only did that on Friday but also set the state's single-season touchdown record.

The senior Georgia Southern commit hauled in 285 yards and 4 touchdowns in the Wildcats' win over Elbert County on Friday, setting the state record for receiving yards at 4.537 yards -- a mark that will continue to rise as the season winds down. He also broke former Collins Hill star Travis Hunter's single-season TD record. Gibson now has 49 TDs this season.

His performance has earned him this week's Gaining the Edge spotlight.
