Scouting Report
A constant playmaker in the secondary, he took charge and was aggressive. Jammed receivers and did a great job against the run. Regularly busted up passes and caused drops. Could even clean up teammates' mistakes. Was feisty, physical and strong for his size. At times, he was prone to taking too many penalties. Also, he was a bit undersized and did not win many jump balls against bigger receivers.
Long Range Potential: Physical cornerback.
