Strengths

• Strong hands to make plays on the ball, effective blitzer who shows well-coached technique and awareness.
• Good instincts and anticipation reads and reacts with discipline. Dangerous with the ball in his hands.
• Good strength to tackle. Plays with high energy and is a tough-minded overachiever.
• Quicker than he is fast but has a burst to close in zone coverage and plays physical at the line in man.
• Has an NFL frame with strong hands, the ability to close quickly on underneath routes and the size to tackle with a thump.
• Transitions well from coverage to close on the ball. Strong hands, quick reactions for the interceptions.

Weaknesses

• Takes poor angles on the ball and lacks the pure speed to chase down the ballcarrier.
• Lowers his shoulder for the big hit rather than wrapping up securely.
• Inconsistent getting off of blocks. Can be a step slow to react when a quarterback comes back to his side of the field late in progression.
• Has very inconsistent tackling technique and too often just throws himself at the lower body of the ballcarrier instead of wrapping up.
