Part time player used at both tackle and end. Finished his senior season with 44/3/1 after not playing during the 2000 campaign. Indicted on a felony charge of cocaine distribution after being arrested January 19, 2000. Prior to that saw only minimal action.
Tremendous athlete yet to prove he is a football player. Breaks down well, fluid and easily moves about the field. Plays with forward lean, can twist or stunt and fast pursuing the action to the flanks. Lacks football instincts, awareness and slow locating the ball. Slow shedding blocks and does not play to his size. Seemingly has got his life back on track and wants to play football but must work harder to develop his skills. Athleticism alone makes him worth a look. Free Agent.
