Early years

Warner was born on November 19, 1996, in San Marcos, California, to Laura and Fred Warner, the eldest of two sons and one daughter. [2] [3] [4] He is half Mexican-American from his mother's side, and half-African American and Panamanian from his father's side. His parents separated when Warner was a toddler, and his mother raised him and his siblings as a single parent. [5] After experimenting with different sports, Warner began playing football when he was seven, which both he and his mother have cited as helping to shape his teenage years by giving him a sense of community. [5] Though he admired numerous San Diego Chargers players, Warner grew up as a fan of the Dallas Cowboys along with his father. [4]

At Mission Hills High School, Warner played as a linebacker on the football team and became a starter his junior year with the varsity team, where he was recognized for his strengths as an outside linebacker and was subsequently named the All-San Diego Section Defensive Player of the Year. [4] Warner was also named to the All-California First-team by USA Today and the Cal-Hi Sports All-State First-team and earned the title of Avocado East League Defensive Player of the Year. [3]

Warner was raised in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and after mentioning his football ambitions to a fellow member of his congregation, who was a Brigham Young University (BYU) alum, he helped to get Warner's highlight reel to Kelly Poppinga, who became his lead recruiter. [5]
