Scouting Report
Was a good athlete with decent speed and quickness. Was versatile enough to play both defensive tackle and defensive end in the National Football League. Possessed the moves to get deep penetration into the backfield. A late bloomer, he lacked experience when he entered the pros and played a tentative game as a result. Could be a little slow in his reactions and would miss some plays. Often needed help to bring down opponents in space.
Long Range Potential: Solid, depth defensive lineman with some versatility.
