Scouting Notes
Definition of elite athlete. Possesses every physical trait that an NFL coaching staff could ask for.
Elite separator. Pairs verified-4.30 speed with excellent footwork and pacing to create openings in coverage with ease at all three levels of the field. He's almost always open.
Elite deep-ball tracker who virtually never loses a pass downfield, using high-end agility to adjust to an inaccurate throw and keep the play alive. A strong-arm QB's dream.
Has flashed potential after the catch, but doesn't quite live up to his athletic potential with the ball in his hands. A lot of unknowns as to his upside as a playmaker.
Very consistent hands in general, but tends to struggle maintaining that consistency in atypical weather conditions. Incredibly limited supply of contested-catch opportunities raises uncertainty about his ability to win catches in traffic.
Decent run blocker, but tends to be more effective distracting corners with a convincing runoff.
Incredibly clutch player who can take over in big moments and routinely makes himself the difference in close games. Huge part of the Owls' historic run in 2016.
