| Scouting Report | Potential |
| Disrupting the quarterback via the blitz is something he will be excellent at in the future. He'll eventually have the strength needed to simply outmuscle most of his competition. As he keeps working hard to improve, he should someday be pretty good in zone pass coverage. When his instincts are fully developed, he could be able to frustrate quarterbacks and make plays in space. |
