As a College Recruit

Among the most athletic and physically-gifted linebacker prospects in the 2024 cycle. Measured in at 6-foot-3, 205 pounds prior to his senior season. Has plus length and a big frame for the position with a 32 ⅞ inch arm and 10-inch hand. An elite athlete in the track and combine setting. Posted a 10.9 second mark in the 100 meters and 6-8 high jump as a junior - fantastic marks. Initially began as a safety before growing into a linebacker. Transfers his elite athleticism over to the field. Owns eye-popping movement skills. A twitched-up athlete who runs sideline-to-sideline with ease. Erases angles with his closing speed. Plays fast and physical. Looks to lower his shoulder and dish out contact. Also a solid tackler. Shows his athleticism as a receiver, with big-play ability. Posted 40 tackles and an interception along with four receiving touchdowns as a senior. Will need to continue adding weight and fully settle into playing linebacker but has substantial upside with his physical gifts and complementary physicality.
