Scouting Report

Assets
  • Good instincts as a runner. Runs low to the ground, is elusive and can really power his way through the line. Always keeps his feet moving. Can also catch a little.
Flaws
  • Doesn't have the moves and shiftiness of a main carrier. Needs to improve in every facet of the game. Not a willing blocker when called upon.
Career Potential
  • Change-of-pace back / utility player.
  • Awards
