Assets

Has a solid arm to complete all the throws. Possesses ideal height for the position and makes good reads. Mobile enough to stay out of trouble in the pocket. A quiet leader.

Flaws

Will occasionally rush things under pressure and make mistakes. Can be inconsistent at times. A late bloomer who has been overlooked most of his career. Could use a little more muscle mass for durability.

Career Potential

Pro Bowl quarterback, when on his game.
