Strengths

• He is a highly competitive player and quickly gets to the perimeter, blocking well in space and at the second level.
• Can seal the edge as an in-line blocker. Not an intimidator but has enough strength, leverage and a solid base.
• Looks to get involved downfield and will block multiple defenders on a single play when he can. Understands his role as a blocker.
• Quick athlete and is usually sure-handed as a receiver. Much-improved route runner, creating space in coverage.
• Height helps him snare high throws but he also adjusts to low ones. Plays hard and with awareness, knows where the marker is. Runs with toughness and sheds tacklers in secondary.

Weaknesses

• Struggles tracking the ball over his shoulder.
• Isn't agile for a tight end. Might have real trouble getting open at the next level.
• Inconsistent with his release off the line of scrimmage.
• Possesses only average straight-line speed and is a bit stiff as a route-runner, showing only average flexibility and burst out of his breaks.
• Lacks the bulk strength to lock on and control NFL defensive linemen. Lower-body strength is questionable and limits his in-line blocking.
