Scouting Report
Active and intense as a blocker. Can line up as either a fullback or a tight end and provides a nice outlet receiving option to the quarterback in the short-range game (especially in the end zone). Doesn't provide much as a running back, in part due to below-average speed. Small for an NFL tight end, which leads to struggles against big, mauling offensive linemen (and raises durability questions).
Long Range Potential: Adequate blocking H-back.
