Scouting Report
A game-changing hybrid of linebacker and safety, he can play in the box as a premier run stopper, blitz off the edge or drop back into coverage with equal aptitude. Will stymie offensive coordinators with his positional flexibility; his elite speed and quickness extend his range to both boundaries and deep into the secondary. An instinctive playmaker, he amasses sacks and takeaways as an unpredictable force with free rein to create havoc all over the field.
Long Range Potential: Supremely versatile defensive player.
