Evaluation: Very physical and instinctive player in the secondary, Hit stick! Long, rangy body and good speed, has very good closing speed on run plays, good cover ability keeping good vision through the play. Very smooth in his transitions and quick hips/feet on the field when reading, reacting, and through recovery. Tons of potential as he continues to develop as a player.
