Strengths
- A savvy, natural pass-catcher with reliable hands and very good focus. Snatches the ball out of the air and shows the concentration to make acrobatic catches look easy.
- Has a knack for getting open and is a quarterback's best friend - passers just need to toss the ball in his area and he'll come down with it.
- Does not possess top breakaway speed, though he's rarely caught from behind.
- Good quickness off the line. Has size and quickness to get off NFL press.
- Balanced, savvy route runner with top field awareness, setting up and selling routes beautifully.
- Does not have exceptional straight-line speed but takes advantage of open seams when his quarterback is on target.
- Generally reliable receiver capable of making difficult catches in traffic over the middle or one on one down the sideline.
- Often used on deep routes, getting separation down the sideline or over the middle on crossing routes by extending his arms rather than pure speed.
Weaknesses
- Does not always use his hands to secure deep throws, allowing the ball into his pads and chest.
- Comes off the snap high and upright, and doesn't get to top speed quickly. Not sudden or elusive.
