Scouting Report
An intense, instinctive, high-motor playmaker in the secondary. Brings an impressively well-rounded game: piles up tackles all over the field (including against the run), has a true knack for the pickoff, excels in coverage one-on-one, and is a hard hitter. A leader who plays bigger than his size, and is always around the ball and in the play. Sometimes goes for the big play rather than the safe one, causing some missed tackles and coverages. Injuries are a concern due to his history of knee issues and smaller size. While very aggressive stepping up on the run he's not much of a safety blitzer.
Long Range Potential: Do-it-all safety with some star potential (when healthy).
