Jose Soto

What the tape shows

Jose Soto demonstrates impressive agility for his size, particularly excelling in pull blocking where his nimble feet allow him to reach and engage defenders effectively. He consistently keeps his feet active and shows strong drive in the run game, maintaining movement through contact. However, Soto’s tendency to play with poor pad level often results in him losing leverage and being beaten on initial contact, which can compromise his effectiveness against stronger opponents. In pass protection, he is adequate but not dominant; his technique is serviceable, though he should not be relied upon to handle one-on-one assignments against top-tier pass rushers. Overall, Soto offers valuable run-blocking upside and movement skills for an interior lineman, but must improve his pad level and refine his pass protection to maximize his impact at the next level.
