Scouting Report

Assets	Has a knack for simply making plays. Has excellent skills in man coverage and follows receivers step for step. Makes great reads and will pick the errant pass or break plays.
Flaws	A good tackler but not a punishing hitter. Could support the run defense more. Not much of a factor on blitzing schemes. Has had off-the-field issues in the past.
Career Potential	Good cover corner. Awards
