Scouting Report
Excellent as man defender and cover corner. Stays in the hip pocket of receivers on deep routes, without giving much ground on shorter routes. Has excellent technique and footwork, allowing him to plant and cut with most wideouts. Can be posted up or out-jumped by bigger receivers. While he fights for the jam from the get-go, he'll also lose his fair share of battles. Could hold his own more in run support. An inconsistent tackler.
Long Range Potential: Aging but quality cover cornerback.
