Scouting Report
A hustling, high-motor playmaker, he was explosive off the snap and could consistently beat his blocker off the edge. Was at his best redirecting and using his inside move to disrupt and get to the quarterback. His fantastic athleticism made him very versatile along the defensive line. Was also a leader. Was somewhat thin-framed and could be neutralized at times on running plays. Tailed off as a run stuffer as his career progressed. Should have been more of a factor getting his hands up in passing lanes to bat down throws.
Long Range Potential: Excellent defensive lineman.
