Signed as an undrafted free agent by Jacksonville Jaguars
Strengths
- Plays the ball as if it was thrown for him, showing burst back to the ball as well as good timing for the jump ball.
- Stout and feisty. Will engage, shed and securely wrap the ballcarrier. Very fluid hips, backpedal and change-of-direction agility.
- Trusts his eyes with very good awareness. Has very good reaction skills to break quickly on the ball.
- Anticipation skills and explosive, downhill burst could make him a star in zone-based scheme.
- Should excel as a zone defender because of his closing speed to wrap receivers after the catch.
Weaknesses
- 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.
- Holds the ball loosely. Inconsistent in run support. Average tackler
- Struggles to break down in space and can be a liability against the run at the second level.
- Will slip off tackles and needs to finish more consistently.
- He's not a tenacious tacker and plays the position with a wide receiver's mentality.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank
in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance.
For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.
*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
