Travis Jay

Long, ideal defensive back frame with muscular build. Fluid athlete with two-way instincts and ability on the perimeter despite lack of elite speed. Safety traits with above-average range and physicality in space or in the box. Coverage ability needs technical refinement but has tools to evolve into boundary or zone cornerback once completely dedicated to defense. Confident football player with an edge. Comfortable in bail technique with consistent ability to snap hips and drive downhill. Plays vertical game. Won't often be on short end of 50/50 footballs. Frame will fill out with relative ease, potentially resulting in a permanent move inside. Considerable quarterback experience reveals lateral ability and raw low-body power. May need time to hone in on specific position, but has the frame and overall athleticism to impact Power Five defensive backfield in some capacity sooner rather than later. Multi-year starter ceiling with middle round NFL Draft upside down the road.
