Scouting Report
The son of former NFL and CFL wideout Craig Yeast plays with plenty of energy. He is an overachiever who entered the NFL with both bachelors and masters degrees. Has good hands and can be an effective blitzer from the back end. His football awareness is fine, but he has to get better at slipping off blocks and finishing off ball carriers.
Long Range Potential: Reserve defensive back.
