Hambrick is a compact, physical all-purpose athlete who impacts the game on offense, defense, and special teams. Lined up at free safety, he shows good instincts and ball skills, highlighted by a deep interception returned for a pick-six. He reads the quarterback well, reacts quickly, and finishes plays once the ball is in his hands.

Offensively, Hambrick contributes in multiple roles. As a wide receiver, he adjusts well to scramble drills, working back to the football and securing catches through contact. As a running back, he runs with urgency and balance. I think Hambrick shows a strong initial burst and the ability to slip tackles in traffic. He’s comfortable running between the tackles, cutting back when lanes close, and finishing near the goal line. Hambrick also adds value in the passing game out of the backfield. Hambrick’s physical build allows him to absorb contact and keep moving forward.

Areas for growth include improving top-end speed and showing more consistency in man coverage on defense. Overall, Hambrick is a tough, dependable, all-purpose player. I’d like to see him continue to improve on his top-end speed.
