Scouting Report
Is explosive off the snap and strong throughout the play. Has the explosiveness and quick movement to play regularly as an outside linebacker. Also has great strength and wingspan to take on much bigger players. Has the ability to power through the line. Really undersized for a pure end. Stays too low in his stance and isn't the dominant force he should be coming off the edge. Needs to be in the right setup to be successful. Lacks top overall technique. Also has some worrisome off-field issues.
Long Range Potential: Talented veteran pass rusher.
