Quote Of The Day
“He has the NFL pedigree. It’s easy to see it. He’s a smart player. He’s well-rounded. He primarily plays safety at his high school. The first thing that sticks out about him is his fluidity in his movements. He is a very loose flexible athlete. He changes directions very well. He looks like the son of an NFL player with his ability to always be in a good position. He’s rarely caught napping and plays with a high level of awareness.”
