Notes: From Menlo Park, CA. Played in 12 of 13 games (missed Bowl game due to injury) as a true freshman, posted 34 tackles and 1 sack in 2015. Played in all 14 games, recorded 44 tackles, 1 tackle-for-loss, 1 interception and 2 pass breakups in 2016. Played in 13 games, credited with 84 tackles, 4 TFL, 1 sack, 1 INT, 6 PBU and 2 forced fumbles in 2017. Played in all 14 games, had 176 tackles, 5.5 TFL, 2 sacks, 2 INT, 8 PBU, 4 FF and 3 fumble recoveries in 2018.
Positives: Excellent tackle production. Made plays all over the field in all phases, especially as a senior. Highly instinctive with good read-recognition skills. Does a nice job of side-stepping blockers to get to the ball. Above average range and pursuit.
Negatives: Significant size, strength and bulk limitations. Gets bounced around at the point of attack and will struggle taking on blockers at the next level.
Summary: Great producer who hopes to make a team on special teams.
