Film Review Notes

Versatile player who is a true three-phase playmaker. Plays quarterback, defensive back and returns punts and kicks. Is a true dual-threat and dangerous with the ball in his hands. On defense, can play corner or safety and shows excellent ball skills and football instincts. Can cover really well and is often used as a shutdown corner if the other team has a talented wideout. Safety is where his upside is probably the highest and he flashes a ton of range and is always around the football.
