Player Summary:

A fourth year rotational wide receiver who is in his second season at LSU after transferring from ULL where he plays in various positions in a spread offense. Has a long and muscular build that is paired with solid AA, quick feet, and twitchy hips. A high football IQ that is seen pre snap as he directs other receivers on adjustments. Has a solid release speed into his stem. A solid route runner that runs his exact route. Good change in directions and good ability at the top of his route where he can create separation. Solid hands that you see he is confident in using and avoids catching with his body to rely on solely on his hands. Solid catch in traffic using his size and strength to out physical defenders. Good YAC using cuts, good body balance and strength to extend plays after the catch. Solid eyes that do not give away his routes.

Executes his routes but does not deviate from the path to adjust to different coverages, oftentimes finding himself covered in zone coverages. Struggles extending plays when the QB is scrambling, once the route is finished he tends to just stay in his spot.

Scheme Fit:

Can play as a slot receiver in a spread or pro-style offense in a rotational capacity. Also has the ability to be a solid special team player.

Power Statement:

A solid receiver who wins with his separation created at the top of routes and his change in direction who serves in a rotational capacity in college and can continue playing in the same style at the next level.
