Scouting Report
Is a dynamic and elusive ball-carrier with ankle-busting moves in the open field. Can make defenders miss with jukes, jump-cuts and sudden burst; he can produce big plays from straight hand-offs and short passes. A classic change-of-pace back, he is most effective when deployed in space. Is not an every-down back and rarely runs between the tackles. Lacks ideal stature for goal-line plays and blocking assignments; durability concerns can limit his workload.
Long Range Potential: Skilled, all-purpose 'scatback'-type running back.
