Scouting Report
Something of an overachiever, he punches well above his modest weight and average size with superb technique, well-honed instincts and supreme confidence. Is an elite tracker of the football who seizes opportunities for turnovers. Uses his natural quickness and economical style to his advantage in man and zone coverage schemes. Delivers a startling payload; he wraps up well and competes hard against the run. Must do a better job of maintaining his strength through an entire season; his resilience will constantly be tested by bigger receivers in the NFL.
Long Range Potential: Talented, big-play cornerback with upside.
