Surprisingly powerful for his short stature due to a strong lower body, good forward lean and determined running.
- An excellent blocker on the outside, he also adds value in the running game.
- He has a low center of gravity and runs with a nice forward lean. He’s decisive with good vision and shows nice balance when running in traffic and the body control to bounce and spin off of bodies.

- Short and lacks the ideal powerful frame to consistently run between the tackles.
- Offers little in pass protection and poor technique cut blocking, fails to do more than slow down blitzers by laying down in front of them.
