Scouting Report

Assets
  • Great speed. Excellent instincts and a fantastic motor. Will pile up tackles and never takes a snap off.
Flaws
  • A bit undersized and needs to be in the right system and role to excel. A tackling machine but doesn't make a lot of plays in coverage or the opposing backfield.
Career Potential
  • Pro Bowler.
