Verified 6-foot-5, 226 pounds in July 2026, with a frame that can hold a lot more mass. He projects to sit comfortably around 260–270 pounds at the next level without giving back athleticism, and he carries his weight very well now. The length is a real weapon and he already knows how to use it. The testing is solid rather than special, with a verified 5.23 in the 40, a 4.65 shuttle, over 25 inches in the vertical, and an 8-foot-8 broad jump. Those numbers are respectable for his size at this age, but they still have room for improvement.…

Top Attributes

- Very moldable physique that can add mass and power - Hand usage and ability to disengage from blockers - Advance pass rush moves - Motor and effort throughout four quarters

Areas to Develop

- Needs to improve hip flexibility and bend - Lacks ideal foot speed and closing speed when chasing ball carriers - Improve burst and twitch off the line of scrimmage - Continue to get stronger and improve hand strength and pop in his strikes

Film Review Notes

Verified size at 6-foot-5, 226 pounds in July 2026. Has multiple verified testing times including a 5.23 40-yard dash and a 4.65 shuttle. He also has verified explosive metrics including over a 25-inch vertical and an 8-foot-8 broad jump. Has a frame that can add a good amount of mass, can see him sitting comfortably around 250-260 pounds at the next level without sacrificing athleticism. Does a great job using his length to keep his chest clean when rushing the passer. Has pretty advanced set of rush moves for a 2028 prospect. Shows some cross-chops, stabs and hand swipes that not many 2028 rushers have in their bag at this stage. Has great feel for leverage and understanding body mechanics. Knows when to counter inside or outside based off of what the tackle is showing him. Decent combination of speed and power moves but will likely develop into more of a pure power player at the next level. Strong against the run, does a great job of shooting his hands in order to initiate contact with blockers. Will see general improvement in his functional strength and will add more pop in his hands as he continues to physically develop and get stronger throughout his frame. Need to see development in his foot speed and change of direction. This will be the biggest contributor to him reaching his ceiling as an EDGE defender. Has some apparent hip stiffness on tape that shows when he’s asked to turn the corner or change direction in the open field. Foot speed plays a factor in this as well, doesn’t have the ideal twitch and short area quickness to thrive in space. Plays with a tremendous motor though and succeeds by playing with his hair on fire for all four quarters and chasing plays from the backside. He’s a force in the run and passing game. Think he projects to a strong-side end at the next level that will make his money as a stout run defender that could develop into a complimentary pass rusher.
