He then displayed his entire skill package to the eyes of coaches during his drill period and live 1 on 1 period. He is seen as a spread QB who flashes the ability to throw the Deep Out, Comeback, Dig, and Seam Route with minimal loft. He displayed the ability to throw receivers open and execute the back shoulder throw. He is a pure athlete on the field and takes an obvious command presence. Has good feet and can move well in the pocket. Can escape the pocket when needed. He is currently ranked as the #37 QB in the class of 2025 in New England.
