Fifth-year collegian that impacted the program as a true freshman. Played in only six games last season, totaling 19/240/12.6/0 after 12/181/15.1/1 as a junior. Redshirted in '99 after starting the prior two seasons, his best of which was 1997 when he caught 16/252/15.8/2. Productive kick returner in the past. Did not work out at the combine then ran poorly during individual workouts a week later. Big East Sprint Champion in the past.
Traffic and field sprinter yet to develop into a football prospect. Quick releasing off the line of scrimmage, comes back to the ball out of his breaks and extends his hands looking the pass in. Catches the ball in stride but unrefined in almost every aspect of his game. Gathers himself and slows down into his pass routes, lets the ball get inside him and does a lot of clutching or double catching of the pass. Loses focus, concentration and takes his eye off the ball before catching it. Lacks the strong hands and drops too many throws. Does not translate his sprinter speed onto the football field. The fact that he did not run at the combine was disturbing, but it was mind boggling that he would not take part in the pass catching drills with his minimal production in college as a pass catcher. Never built upon the flashes he showed as a freshman and needs to prove he is more than just a sprinter in a football helmet. Free Agent.
