| Scouting Report | Potential |
| His man cover skills are expected to develop nicely if he keeps working hard. This kid has the type of body that will allow him to develop very special agility skills over time. When he gets this all figured out, he'll be solid at bringing down ball carriers. He's been working with a lot of focus lately and, over time, should become solid playing in the zone. |
