Scouting Report
Plays with excellent physicality and is a constant threat to get into the backfield for sacks, yet also stone-walls ball-carriers and logs a high number of tackles. Does a great job of pressuring the pocket thanks to incredible quickness, agility, and explosiveness. Also durable. Works very hard on the field but has been a little unreliable off it in terms of team activities. Has been in suspension trouble too. Can do even more in getting his hands up to alter passes and bat down throws.
Long Range Potential: Powerhouse elite inside defensive lineman.
