Devonta Freeman Biography

Childhood and High school

Devonta Freeman was born March 15, 1992 in Baxley Georgia. Freeman attributes his drive to being the oldest of seven children and the man of the house at age 12. He grew up in the projects of Miami's Liberty City and attended Miami Central High School in West Little River, Florida. There, he led his school to a championship in the 6A state title game, gaining 308 yards on 36 carries and amassing an impressive highlight reel. Freeman was a consensus 4 star running back, the 10th highest rated in the class, and ranked 108th overall by Rivals.com.

NFL Draft

Freeman scored acceptable numbers at the NFL Combine, posting a 31.5 inch vertical jump, an 118 inch broad jump and a 4.26 second shuttle.
