| Has a compact build and low center of gravity. Posseses excellent balance a strong lower body. Is an excellent cutback runner with good vision and lateral agility. Has the breakaway speed to outrun defenders in the open field and does a good job of getting upfield right away and not dancing in the backfield. Has solid hands, but hasn't been used much as a receiver. Must improve in pass protection. |
