Scouting Report
Evaluated 12/07/2023
Projection
Power 4 StarterLinebacker size with edge length and ample on-field experience at both spots. Flashes impressive linear closing speed and broad pursuit range. Capable of dip-and-bend, corner-turning rush ability, as well as occasionally dropping into space and holding his own vs. the pass. Provides pop as a tackler but can improve technique consistency. Will separate the man from the ball if opportunity arises. Showed noticeably improved functional athleticism as a senior. Solid lateral athletic markers in a combine setting accompany excellent arm/wing length relative to a 6-foot+ build. Projects to the Power Five level as an eventual starter with some physical upside that could raise his long-term ceiling.
