ONE LINER

A hybrid linebacker/safety who flies to the football, plays physical, is excellent in pass coverage and has shown a propensity for the turnover based on his illustrious collegiate career; Lenoir-Rhyne All Decade Team selection.

EVALUATION

Wore #12 at HUB Football CAMP (03/27/22). An instinctual ball-hawk who is quick to read-and-react. Possesses excellent size, well-built frame and athleticism to thrive as a linebacker. A fluid mover who is light on his feet, attributes that really showed up during the scrimmage session of the HUB workout. In fact, the most impressive part of his overall game was his ability to pick up running backs out of the backfield, as he disrupted nearly every ball thrown in his direction and even added a one-handed pick for good measure. Participated in both linebacker drills (with HUB coach Sam Anno) and defensive back drills (with HUB Coach Derrick Gardner). Probably lacks the hip movement necessary to play safety full-time but could fill in when needed. Get this player with an NFL-level strength and conditioning program, as he continues to refine his overall game and he could develop into a backend of the roster player who can contribute on special teams.
