Twitchy, downhill defensive back who plays fast and strikes. Used all over the secondary, lining up deep, over the slot, and rolling into the box. Sees it and triggers instantly, flying to the ball without hesitation. Hyper-physical in run support, taking on blocks and pinballing off them with his eyes up to find the ball-carrier.
