Scouting Report

Assets
  • Reliable and smart. Doesn't allow a lot of big plays. Will take some calculated risks and pick off passes. Still has good quickness. A high-character individual who earns the respect of teammates and coaches.
Flaws
  • Not a shut down corner. Must allow quick receivers to work in front of him. Can get shielded and out-jumped by bigger receivers.
Career Potential
  • Adequate starter.
