Strengths

• Does a nice job using his eyes to read and react quickly. Smart, disciplined defender who makes plays on the ball and contesting throws.
• Strong hands to make plays on the ball, effective blitzer who shows well-coached technique and awareness.
• Has smooth body control with the fluid ability to plant and redirect in any direction. Plays fast and decisive, arriving to the play with fierce intentions.
• Patient and flexible in his drops and looks natural in space. Aggressive with an active playing style to work through the action - doesn't back down against the run
• Does a very good job of reading the eyes of the quarterback and reacting with good field awareness and ball skills.

Weaknesses

• Needs to get stronger. Too easily lost in the trash. Not a sudden athlete and shows body stiffness when attempting to quickly redirect.
• Has below-average measurables for the position and lacks ideal length.
• 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.
• Needs to tighten his angles in pursuit. Needs to show better tackling technique to consistently finish.
• Lacks the timed speed to mirror and maintain contact downfield. Loses the ball on slow-developing plays and has a tendency to reach and grab when he gets antsy.
