Strengths

• Displays nice agility and awareness in coverage. Has the size and speed to be effective rushing the passer.
• Tougher between the tackles than many expect. Fluid and quick drop into zone, covers enough ground to be Tampa-2 "MIKE" and knows where the markers are.
• Good quickness to attack ballcarriers when playing near the line. Breaks down and wraps legs to make the stop.
• He will always try to plow into the largest piles and has a good knack of ending up glued to the ballcarrier.
• Plays fast, flows with the action, showing smooth lateral agility and short-area burst. Has good instincts and awareness to quickly find the ball.
• Works hard to get better and gives top effort on every play. Heads-up defender who shows good field awareness.
• Has the combination of size and athleticism worthy of development.
• Greet feel in coverage. Often arrives at the receiver at the same time as the ball, giving up few yards after the catch. Possesses straight-line speed to stay with or chase down receivers in man.

Weaknesses

• His lateral agility and burst often put him in position to make big plays, but he takes questionable routes to the ball and struggles to avoid blockers when in pursuit.
• Generally an effective openfield tackler but doesn't wrap up consistently. Shows only average awareness in coverage.
