Gross is an excellent between-the-tackles inside linebacker. His low center of gravity makes him tough to block and almost automatically makes him a good form tackler. When Gross gets going downhill, ball carriers will know they have been hit. Between the tackles is not the only place where he excels. He has solid footwork and the quickness to get from sideline to sideline. That athletic ability and good instincts make him solid in pass coverage. Offensively, he is a short-yardage Wildcat quarterback, but he shows out most on that side of the ball as a lead blocker and a tight end or wing who can set the edge.
