Scouting Report

Assets
  • Hard-hitting safety who can be a force against the run. Has sideline-to-sideline range and plays the run with a mean streak. Chiseled athlete with excellent track-and-field speed. Blows people up and intimidates receivers.
Flaws
  • Comes and goes in coverage. A long strider who takes a step or two to get into high gear. Will go for the big crunch and miss some tackles.
Career Potential
  • Solid starter.
