Strengths

Alpha dog mentality that is visible when he is on the field. Ability to take over a game, evidenced by the Pac-12 Championship game where he recorded two interceptions, one for the game winning touchdown. Great instincts that help make up for lack of size and speed, ‘football IQ’ is through the roof.
