Scouting Report

Assets
  • Fine athlete who spent some time at wide receiver. Strong arm. Has hot streaks when he looks like an All Pro. Has a gunslinger's mentality and wants the ball in crunch time.
Flaws
  • Very streaky and inconsistent. Forces a lot of passes and has too much faith in his arm. Not a top student of the game or dissector of defenses.
Career Potential
  • Solid backup.
