Three-year starter and All-Conference selection as a senior after totaling 39/12/8. Junior totals included 28 tackles after a career-high 49 during his sophomore campaign.

Pos:

Intense, high-motor defender who makes the most of his abilities. Plays with leverage, gets underneath opponents and wedges between blockers. Explodes off the snap, makes plays down the line of scrimmage and rarely off his feet. Constantly doubled on the inside, yet keeps his feet moving on contact and plays with a warrior mentality. Effective with his hands and displays an array of moves to get off blocks. Instinctive and immediately locates the ball.

Neg:

Engulfed by opponents or handled at the point. Marginal playing speed.
