Definitely knows how to play the game. Very disciplined, is rarely out of position and reads and diagnoses plays well. Has a good motor and pursues downfield and to the sidelines. Is fast enough to drop and play in space and has good closing speed in pursuit. Displays solid technique, plays with good leverage and shows the ability to disengage. Must add weight and strength at the point of attack to better play the run in college.


Biography:
Led Lightning to Prep Bowl semifinals and an 11-2 mark as a junior. Named second team Associated Press All-State last year as a defensive lineman. Also plays lacrosse.
