If you’re a college coach, there should be an appreciation for the first two clips on Bailey’s junior highlight video. He busts it down the field and makes plays on kickoff coverage. From there, we witness footage of a versatile performer with a high motor and an affinity for physicality. No matter the phase or the play, he’s seeking contact. Lining up at defensive end, Bailey plays assignment football and delivers tackles when the action comes his way.
