Scouting Report
Smart, elusive, fast, and very reliable catching the football. Possesses big, strong, sure hands and uses them to regularly make tough catches. Has the foot-speed to hit the deep strike, elite leaping ability for jump balls, and excellent quickness and footwork to get open. Also a hard-working locker room leader. Undersized for an NFL wideout in both height and length, presenting challenges against bigger, stronger pro defensive backs (especially on the jam at the line of scrimmage). Needs to keep working on his timing and physicality to deal with NFL size and strength.
Long Range Potential: Athletic slot receiver.
