Scouting Report
An elite athlete with rare, eye-popping speed for his size, he can blow past some offensive tackles and is constantly staying in plays with his feet. Chases down ball-carriers, even when he's taken out of the play and has the fluid mobility to be a big factor eventually in pass coverage. Light in terms of bulk for the end spot (and even for outside linebacker) and still needs a lot of work on shedding tackles (as single blockers often move him or move him off his line of attack). Also tends to jump early on snaps.
Long Range Potential: Quality pass rusher.
