HEIGHT: 5'11"
WEIGHT: 178
POSITIVES
— Competitive cornerback who doesn't give up on the play and plays through the whistle. Does a good job of swiping through the catch point and shows to be calm with the ball in the air.
— Triggers quick to the run and screens, flying up to the ball-carrier and showing the willingness and aggressive mindset to tackle.
— Very good in zone coverage. Showing vision, awareness, and good positioning with leverage.
NEGATIVES
— Questionable top-end speed. Lacks the ideal recovery speed when trying to get back in phase with crossers and down the field.
— Good footwork but shows average burst when transitioning on the receiver and ball.
