Scouting Report
The confident cornerback trusts his technique and does not panic when the ball is in the air. He is a solid tackler who shows the ability to track down receivers on shallow crossing patterns and cut them down short of the first-down marker. Is well versed in a number of schemes, and he has the strength and physicality to excel in press coverage, although he has to work on his timing to avoid pass interference penalties.
Long Range Potential: Excellent cornerback.
