Strengths
- Productive tackler with a nose for the ball on coverage teams.
- Works eyes from quarterback to the route as split safety.
- Heavy hands send jarring punch into blockers’ attempts.
- Comes to balance and makes himself wide as open-field tackler.
- Patient to launch tackle tries only when he has target locked in.
Weaknesses
- Backpedal is sluggish and fails to gain enough ground.
- Struggles to flip hips and run in phase with the route.
- Can be exploited when tasked with man coverage duties.
- Short arms and limited athleticism shrink his range as a tackler.
- Has very little margin for error playing in big spaces.
