He has a very good burst out of his stance and he appears experienced in how to get separation from the linebackers who will try and cover him. His hands appear solid and reliable.    He does this while executing crisp routes and getting to the open spot.  The third clip in shows his eye and hand coordination with his ability to make difficult catches.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-643ff6faed597"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/MasonMcSweeney5/status/1602672994739953664?s=20","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/MasonMcSweeney5/status/1602672994739953664?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed -->
