Strengths
- Trusts his eyes with very good awareness. Has very good reaction skills to break quickly on the ball.
- Savvy cover skills to recognize and anticipate routes. Understands what's coming and has good ball skills.
- Stout and feisty. Will engage, shed and securely wrap the ballcarrier. Very fluid hips, backpedal and change-of-direction agility.
- Willing and successful blitzing off the edge. Consideration for a move to safety with a combination of range and sure tackling.
- Quicker than he is fast but has a burst to close in zone coverage and plays physical at the line in man.
- 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.
- A coordinated athlete with good footwork and balance. A heady cover player with above-average · feel and anticipation in space.
Weaknesses
- Questionable technique and he gets lazy with fundamentals, sometimes getting high in his backpedal and will breach the coverage call seeking flashy plays
- 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.
- 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.
