Scouting Report

Assets
  • An excellent underneath receiver who used his quickness to get open on short routes. Very experienced and could pick apart zone coverages. A tough player who knew how to take a hit. A true pro.
Flaws
  • Age and injuries took their toll later in his career, keeping him from runing away from defenders like he once did. Became somewhat more a possession guy over time.
Career Potential
  • Star wideout.
