| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Coaches expect good things from him in the future when it comes to blitzing the quarterback. He loves to work and down the road he's going to have very solid strength for a safety. Coaches will never have to gameplan around him but he should eventually be ok at intercepting passes. When he gets this all figured out, he'll be solid at bringing down ball carriers. |
