- Excellent quick-twitch movement off the snap in pass protection and as a run blocker.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Has the traits to improve, but Fashanu gets impatient in his set, lunging and reaching, and generally playing with poor balance at times. Fashanu is inconsistent with his kick slide.
