The impact of Kaiden Ford on the gridiron for the Fort Gibson Tigers continues to prove the importance the “Defense Wins Championships”.
The 6-0, 275 pound nose guard in the Tigers defense has been a one man wrecking crew. During the first three games of the 2025 season, the Tigers junior has totaled 20 tackles including three stops for loss and two quarterback sacks plus a fumble recovery in the defensive trenches as well as bolstering the impact on the offensive front.
A two-time powerlifting state champion, draws praise from the Tigers coaching staff.
“Kaiden has a motor that runs hot,” said defensive coordinator Sammy Johnson. He’s not just big and strong; Kaiden flys to the football and plays with fanatical effort on every snap. Those efforts require double team concentration by our opponents.”
