Scouting Report

Assets
  • One of the best athletes in football, if not the world. Outstanding speed and change-of-direction quickness. A nightmare in the open field. Has great instincts with the ball in his hands. Appears to be a willing student who is learning to grow as a route
Flaws
  • Drops a lot of passes. Fumbles some returns. Very raw as a receiver. Never found a true position in college, a sign that he may not have the mental ability to absorb the playbook.
Career Potential
  • Outstanding role player. Unknown quantity as a starter.
