Scouting Report

Assets
  • Quick and disruptive off the snap. Pursues plays well and will make some tackles outside the box. Has long arms, can disengage from blockers, and will rip the ball loose. A fine athlete with potential as a pass rusher.
Flaws
  • Is a little narrow in the hips and won't be a two-gap run stuffer. Doesn't always get leverage and can be neutralized. Lacks experience and refinement. Makes mistakes and gets out of position.
Career Potential
  • Long-range prospect.
