Evaluation:

Inside, outside corner. Can be a disruptive nickel with his quick twitch and reaction. Can provide extra pass rush as a free blitzer off the backside and should be utilized as such in certain situations. Fearless in the run game. Good instincts that really show on underneath routes and screens. Sheds off perimeter blocks well, making the initial tackle on screens. Plays the deep ball with consistency but rarely tested. More than capable of being a day one starter.
