Scouting Report: Strengths
- Has the agility, technique, and size to contribute early in his professional career. Quick, active hands to latch on to defenders.
- Has average height with a narrow base out of his stance. Needs to get stronger in his lower half to anchor at the point of attack.
- Fundamentally sound and understands blocking angles, using body positioning to his advantage. Disciplined awareness and good intelligence.
- Adequate foot quickness to remain outside. Can get to the second level with surprising agility when adjusting to moving defenders. Underrated athleticism, agility, balance, and even straight-line speed to contribute.
- Good natural athleticism, knee bend and fluid lateral movement to mirror college defensive ends.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Good upper-body strength but must improve his core strength. Better suited to a zone-blocking system because of his athleticism.
- Loses leverage battles and plays with high pad level. Can be late off the snap.
