Junior entry, two year starter. Transferred from Maryland after his freshman year in 2021. All Big-10 honorable mention in 2022 and first-team All-Big 10 last season. Has the frame desired for an NFL edge defender. Played from a two and three point stance in a wide nine and five alignment. Displays extreme first step quickness and is explosive, penetrating a gap. Relentless in pursuit, he shows outstanding second effort if blocked and has a closing burst once free. Playing the run he’s adept at sifting inside gaps and can be physical tackling. Sets the edge with strong hands and moves well laterally chasing down perimeter runs or flattening in the backfield after hitting a gap. Has been used at times to drop in coverage and is a solid flat defender. As a pass rusher, the quick first step creates problems for a tackle setting in pass protection. Shows a quick dip and rip versus a tackle and can bend and squeeze to the quarterback with a precise path. Remarkable speed to turn the corner. On an inside move he can beat a lineman off the ball penetrating a gap. Adept at inside stunts. While strong his block protection technique is inconsistent and he doesn’t always get separation from a powerful blocker on run plays. Offensive tackles can get away with oversetting and riding him out as he lacks a consistent counter move. Tends to just go without a plan other than beat a blocker with quickness and speed and then chase. In his zeal he will overrun a play at times. His production doesn’t always match his traits. Has a high ceiling but will need technique development at the next level. An ascending player with the upside of an elite edge defender.
