- Played varsity; very good release from the line; makes razor-sharp cuts; has potential to develop truly elite speed; great vision in the open field; uses his hips to his advantage, able to maneuver defenders; able to out jump two defenders, in the back of the end zone, while staying in bounds along the end line; mostly uses hands when catching; very difficult to bring down because he keeps his feet moving at all times

- Highly explosive returner and receiver; waits to hit full speed until he see things clearly and is able to set up his blockers; can stop/go and restart; has balance as a runner that makes him difficult to bring down; catches with hands in a variety of ways: through traffic and through defensive arm bars, during tip drill, and taking a hit to the body or clipped at the knees; picks up his feet, spins out of tackles; defensively he can be faked, yet has the recovery speed to get back; have not seen him drive on a ball as a defender; cradles ball, does not put it away when running; want to see come back to, attack the ball as a receiver – get it in his own hands sooner and get to work, particularly in the short game
