Notes: From Nyack, NY. Majoring in cultural anthropology with a minor in political science. Three-year starter. Did not see game action in 2015. Posted 107 tackles, 9.5 tackles-for-loss, 4 sacks, 1 interception, 2 pass breakups and 1 fumble recovery in 2016. Compiled 125 tackles, 16 TFL, 4.5 sacks, 1 INT, 4 PBU and 1 forced fumble in 2017. Had 81 tackles, 7 TFL, 1 sack, 2 PBU and 1 blocked kick in 2018; missed the last 4 games of the season due to an MCL injury.

Positives: Very smart, active, instinctive and productive. Diagnoses quickly and flies to the football in the open field. Good burst and closing speed. Penetrates and disrupts. Solid tackler. Above average range and pursuit. Makes plays in all phases.

Negatives: Average size and bulk strength taking on blockers at the point of attack. Gives ground too often when shedding blocks.

Summary: Average on paper but very, very productive.
