If he is even with a defender, a QB can throw it up, and he usually comes down with the ball. He is not a one-trick pony; the kid is exceptional after the catch. He can catch the ball and make defenders miss in the open field. Then, as an edge defender, he is also a playmaker. Chasing plays down all over the field. On one play, he intercepted a pass and returned it for a touchdown.
