Scouting Report
An excellent edge rusher who knows how to get to the quarterback, he is strong, quick at the point of attack and tenacious. Plays with a great motor and is quite disruptive, overall. Is rather explosive and he loves to get to the quarterback. Needs to add more bulk for the purpose of longevity at the highest level. Struggles in coverage, and is still learning the nuances of the position (he played defensive end in college).
Long Range Potential: Quality edge rusher with upside.
