Three-year starter at free safety that was a second team All-Conference selection last season. Led the team in tackles totaling 103/4/9 after 67/2/3 as a junior. Made an impact as a redshirt sophomore totaling 83/4/1. Productive special teams player in the past and also competed on the school's indoor track team as a sprinter.
Aggressive and physical safety best defending the run. Quick reading or anticipating the action, displays a burst of speed and forceful moving up the field. Likes to mix it up, works to make the tackle and squares into the opponent wrapping them up and bringing them down on initial contact. Keeps the play in front of him, does not get caught out of position nor does he get beat deep. Not a sudden or explosive defensive back, late arriving on the scene and has only adequate cover skills. May be best in nickel or dime packages and primarily a special teams player at the next level but must improve his overall pass cover skills to have a chance of sticking on a roster. Free Agent.
