What the tape shows
At FIU, he looks uncoverable in the open field — his acceleration off the line is instant and violent, he eats up cushion before corners can react, and once he is past the first level he is a legitimate big-play threat on any snap. His deep ball tracking is a real weapon. He adjusts to throws in stride without losing a step. He also came back from his shoulder surgeries with improved physicality against press coverage — the 2025 ACC tape shows him competing with bigger corners in a way that his size makes more impressive than it looks.
