Strengths

• Attacks the ball with authority, with quick read-and-react ability. Willing and physical tackler, flashes toughness and aggressive nature vs. the run.
• Very aggressive attacking receiver blocks and tackles like a safety.
• Willing and successful blitzing off the edge. Consideration for a move to safety with a combination of range and sure tackling.
• A coordinated athlete with good footwork and balance. A heady cover player with above-average · feel and anticipation in space.
• Stout and feisty. Will engage, shed and securely wrap the ballcarrier. Very fluid hips, backpedal and change-of-direction agility.
• 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.
• 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.
• Good strength to tackle. Plays with high energy and is a tough-minded overachiever.

Weaknesses

• Has a high backpedal and loses a step in transition. Plays with adequate speed but there are concerns about his ability to handle the truly explosive speedsters of the NFL.
• Questionable technique and he gets lazy with fundamentals, sometimes getting high in his backpedal and will breach the coverage call seeking flashy plays
