Scouting Report
Explosively fast and quick, he was a terror for teams trying to cover him. Got good separation on man-to-man coverage and was then gone down the field. Had good hands and could pluck the ball from out of the air. A superb route runner, he was a dangerous deep-play threat every time he was on the field. Was also excellent as a return man. A bit frail, he was somewhat undersized. Occasionally, he could lose focus and miss plays. Was somewhat streaky and a bit moody at times.
Long Range Potential: Mercurial, big-play wide receiver with elite speed.
