Scouting Report

Assets
  • Still a great hitter with exceptional range. A passionate competitor who plays in an extra gear when the game is on the line. Still has some pass rush skills. Has become smarter and more instinctive as the years went on, and he now makes very good decisions and rarely guesses wrong or overpursues a play.
Flaws
  • Not as quick or agile as he once was. Can't single-handedly provide a pass rush anymore. Is slowing down, and nagging injuries are starting to mount.
Career Potential
  • Fading Hall of Famer.
