Scouting Report
Was well-rounded and had a high motor off the edge. Was constantly hustling to make plays, and he had the effort and hands to get into the backfield. Did not give up when he was blocked and had big, powerful hands that helped him disengage and stuff the run. Also got his hands up in passing lanes. Lacked ideal size, fluidity and explosiveness at outside linebacker. While he got to the QB on some plays, he had a tough time setting the edge against tough pass blockers. Also, he was not speedy or agile in one-on-one assignments against big receivers.
Long Range Potential: Energetic edge rusher.
