Scouting Report

Assets
  • A very smart and experimented corner. Adapts well to any situation and can fill in at any time. Has good athleticism and speed and is very aware of the action. Makes the occasional pick.
Flaws
  • Has durability issues. Tends to wear down if heavily used. Not an every-down corner or a playmaker. A tentative blitzer.
Career Potential
  • Decent backup / emergency starter.
