A backup most of his career. Has only average size but is thick-legged and muscular. Late mover off the ball with quick overall movements. Springs into his blocks. Has good feet and agility. Can bend his knees. Not as physical a blocker as he should be. Gives ground too willingly in pass protection. Has excellent speed for the position. Not a smooth route runner, but he has a good burst out of his cuts. Inconsistent catching the ball -- not a natural extender. Good athlete. Can punt. A prospect based on potential more than production.
