STRENGTHS

• He is an explosively fast, twitchy, athletic receiver who flourishes in space.
  
• He will take the roof of the defense instantly as he will hit top speed in a blink of an eye and has an extra to leave the defenders.
  
• He has the stop-start short-area quickness that having would be tacklers scratching their heads why they missed a tackle or shook.
  
• He will stop and use impressive acceleration to terminate the defender's angle of getting to him.
  
• He has excellent leaping ability as he lit up the chart with a 39½" vertical and leaped 133" in the broad jump.
  
• He has good eye-hand coordination to locate the ball, with excellent tracking skills with over-the-shoulder catches.
  
• He utilizes his leaping ability to high-point passes thrown over his head that most receivers at his height will not come down with for possession.
  
• He will contest with 50/50 balls no matter where the ball is thrown.
  
• He has solid and reliable hands allowing him to make tough catches in traffic and hold on to the ball if blasted in the middle of the field.
  

WEAKNESS

• He struggles with press coverages as more prominent and more physical cornerbacks drive him off his route.
• He must redefine his basic route-running skills as he rounds his cuts that will lead to pick-sixes at the next level. 
• He does not have the strength to break tackles, which is odd, as a former running back that will go down easy. 
• Working on his skill with short and medium routes is something he needs to concentrate on during the off-season workouts.
• He gives nothing as a blocker down the field and will need to work on blocking.
