Probably one of the more versatile linebackers I’ve seen in awhile. Can stay square to ballcarriers, fit the run inside the LOS and wrap up. Flashes being great in coverage, snagging interceptions. Can drive ballcarriers back and dent. Good overall, all-around prospect. Recorded 121 tackles, three sacks, 6 QB hurries and 6 pass breakups in 2024. Picked up his first Division I offer after strong college day performance.
