STRENGTHS
Jalen Collins is a long, fluid, twitchy prospect with big upside at cornerback. Collins is a big jumper with the ability to challenge and take away jump balls. He's aggressive and will sacrifice his body to get the ball. He's athletically gifted and is able to change direction on the fly to keep up with receivers—and he does this with inconsistent and sloppy footwork, often wasting steps.
In man coverage he has the height, weight and speed to be a factor down the field, and when asked to play in zone he reacts to the ball in flight and can close on the receiver to make a play on the ball.
