He also has a sick spin move I saw him use on offensive linemen where he set them up one way and spun the other way to make a play in the backfield against the offense. He also shows good strength as he is hard to move off his spot. He also has excellent technique, as he uses his hands well to engage with offensive linemen.

His ability to play as both a fullback in Wyomissing's offense and as a linebacker is impressive. As a fullback, he runs hard and runs with a physical running style. He also shows off the speed to run for big plays. As a linebacker, he does an excellent job of reading and reacting to the play and then making plays against the offense. He does a nice job of tackling and offensive players feel it when he tackles them. Niedrowski is an excellent player on both sides of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1506891"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67d82e184fbb0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1506891' first='Elias' last='Hanson'] is a match-up piece on defense for Coatesville. He can play as a free safety, cornerback, and strong safety. As a free safety, he is particularly lethal. If you are a quarterback, you had better find him because he travels so much ground, he can usually pick off any passes slightly overthrown. Then, as a cornerback, he has excellent coverage skills. He can lock down most wide receivers. Finally, as a strong safety, he is a good tackler who can also take away any passes thrown underneath. Hanson is a highly skilled defensive back.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
