Scouting Report
Potential
He'll eventually be one of the best safeties you'll see at getting to the quarterback. In the future, he should develop good enough man cover skills to make a significant contribution. He loves to work and down the road he's going to have very solid strength for a safety. As he develops a better feel for the game, his instincts will help his play immensely.
