What the tape shows
Style: Pocket Passer Strengths: Accurate to 55 yards; deep ball placement is a strength. Throws with velocity on a line when needed. Excellent touch on back-shoulder and layered throws. Can effectively layer throws versus zone coverage. Concerns / Passing Notes: Drifts backward when pressured instead of stepping up. Overconfidence can lead to forced throws. Run-game contribution (mobility, PA carry-outs, boots) needs further evaluation. Operational Notes: Very confident in arm talent; trusts windows. Pocket efficiency decreases when interior pressure shows. Projection: High-upside pocket passer with advanced accuracy and touch. Needs refinement in pocket movement and situational decision-making to reach full potential.
