Scouting Report

Assets
  • A very talented corner with the athleticism to play in almost any set-up. Reads plays well and is a constant threat to pick the ball off. Has playmaking skills and some ability as a return man.
Flaws
  • Not very tall or physical. Doesn't jam well at the line and relies on his speed to catch up. Tends to bite too often on fake plays. Still learning despite his few years of experience.
Career Potential
  • Slightly above-average cornerback.
  • Awards
