Scouting Report
At 6'2", 255 pounds, he can be a real thumper from the linebacker position. A classic inside 'backer, he is a tackling machine who is at his best against the run. Can be used occasionally on blitzes, too. Is better at stopping the running game than when forced to drop back into coverage. Is usually in perfect position. Has the ability to call plays as a true middle linebacker.
Long Range Potential: Solid inside linebacker.
