Received All-Conference consideration as a senior after posting numbers of 44/2/5. totaled 19/0/5 as a junior, when he spent most of the year playing with an injured knee. Looked like an up and comer as a red shirt freshman after breaking into the starting lineup and registering 44/6/9.
Nice-sized corner who flashes cover skills on occasion. Runs with opponents down the field, positions himself to make a play against the pass displaying a good break on the ball and nice closing speed. Does a solid job reading the offense, takes good angles to the action and defends the run, wrapping up when tackling. Side-shuffles rather than back pedals off the line of scrimmage, has difficulty staying with receivers out of their breaks and also slow turning back to the pass or locating the ball. Does not play to his size and all too often loses out when he has the opportunity to defend the throw. Has not been the same since the knee injury two seasons ago and must get it back on track if he's to play at the next level. Some long-term potential if he returns to form and a good combine workout pushed him into the middle rounds. Mid Fourth Round.
