He was constantly on the line for another rep at DB and showed up to win most of his reps. With short routes he brings the aggressiveness needed to push the receiver off his mark and disrupt the timing off the play. On deeper routes he uses patience and awareness to break on the ball, or close on the receiver at his break. I really like his back pedal technique and hand placement in press. He stays square to the receiver until the ball is in the air.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d8309909690"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AthleteImagine/status/1617960111561113600?s=20u0026amp;t=iNAexe0z8UdNc754SkbDCg","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AthleteImagine/status/1617960111561113600?s=20&amp;t=iNAexe0z8UdNc754SkbDCg </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["347298"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Broad Jump: 8'9u0022rnrnPro-Shuttle: 4.5srnrn20-Yard Split: 2.81srnrnGreene showed good make up speed and playing through the hands during 1-on-1s.
