Read analyst Hudson Standish’s 247Sports 2024 scouting report…

“Versatile secondary defender last verified hovering around 5-foot-11, 170 pounds with a plus-wingspan and adequate arm length. Owns experience playing field and boundary corner along with occasional reps at safety, at this stage of the evaluation process likely profiles to cornerback but could reasonably find a long-term home at all five spots in the defensive backfield. Dynamic playmaker with the ball in his hands in all three phases, totaling five interceptions and seven receiving touchdowns to go along with valuable return game experience. Limited third-party verified combine testing data or multi-sport athletic markers aside from a 12.16 100m personal best from his freshman year. Should be viewed as a high-floor coverage ace with limited verified athletic context ahead of his junior season.”
