Scouting Report
Reliable and versatile, he can line up as a 4-3 defensive tackle, a 3-4 defensive end or even over the center as a nose tackle (if required). That ability to play several different positions along the D-line helps teams immensely, which is why he is an asset at the National Football League level. Primarily a run stopper, he is not a big sack artist and is often replaced on passing downs.
Long Range Potential: Solid, versatile defensive lineman.
