Scouting Report

Assets
  • A pure tackle specimen: has ideal size and wingspan for the tackle position. Great footwork and lateral quickness. Very polished in pass protection: sets well, bends his knees and doesn't lunge.
Flaws
  • Lacks discipline in his play and is hugely penalized. Could be a better finisher and needs to improve lower leg drive to do more when blocking straight ahead.
Career Potential
  • Good rotational tackle with upside.
  • Awards
