Scouting Report
Has truly excellent foot speed and stellar athleticism, which help him stay with most receivers and erase a lot of miscues in coverage. He does a nice job in pure coverage, yet is also very solid stepping up in run support and on the blitz. Can be more active jumping routes and challenging for interceptions, and must beef up his frame to deal with physical pro receivers. Possesses short arms for a defensive back, and he's also limited by small hands and less-than-ideal playing strength.
Long Range Potential: Good cover cornerback with some starter tools.
