Strengths
- Alert defender for zone coverage, showing good understanding of route progressions occurring behind him and a quick burst downhill to break on underneath passes in front of him.
- Trusts his eyes with very good awareness. Has very good reaction skills to break quickly on the ball.
- Good instincts and anticipation reads and reacts with discipline. Dangerous with the ball in his hands.
- Aware zone cornerback who is also adept in man coverage, flashing physical hand punch at the line and straight-line speed to stay with receivers downfield.
- Savvy cover skills to recognize and anticipate routes. Understands what's coming and has good ball skills.
Weaknesses
- Needs work on backpedaling to prevent defenders from getting behind him.
- Lacks instincts with shaky awareness, is overaggressive and too often bites on fakes and misdirection.
- Inconsistent getting off of blocks. Can be a step slow to react when a quarterback comes back to his side of the field late in progression.
- Will slip off tackles and needs to finish more consistently.
- Vulnerable to big plays trying to bait the quarterback.
