THE GOOD

– Physical at catch point against receivers coming into his vicinity
– Explosive downhill, especially against the run
– Recognizes screens well and flies downhill

THE BAD
– Some overall athletic limitations
– Has decent top-end speed, but it takes some time for him to get there
– Sometimes overaggressive physically, receives too many penalties and targeting calls
– Can get caught with eyes in the backfield and lose track of his receiver, most often in zone coverage
– Struggles to reach deepest parts of his zone if he starts play near the LOS
– Falls for play-action too often, and doesn’t have recovery speed to make up for it
– Can get overaggressive and over-pursue
– Not much of a plan when rushing the passer in blitzing situations
– Relies on power and strength more than technique when tackling
