Three-year starter. Two-time All-Big 10 honorable mention. Transfer from UCLA prior to the 2024 season. Hailed by coaches and players as the leader of the defense. Versatile defender with extensive snaps at deep safety, nickel, and in the box walked-up and linebacker depth. Loose backpedal and notable flexibility in his extremities. Notable athlete with loose hips, quick feet, and considerable agility to change direction in an instant. At his best when deep where he can see the whole field and utilizes his impressive instincts to rally to the ball. From depth he sees the whole field and processes route concepts rapidly. Extensive range helps him cover a significant portion of the field from depth and excel as a one-high defender. Considerable man coverage skills; able to match and mirror different routes with eye discipline and can turn and run with receivers downfield with impressive speed. Good feel for spacing in off-man matched with solid transition quickness to squeeze down on underneath routes and react to the receiver's stem as soon as it happens. Understanding of run lanes and positions himself well to force ball carriers back inside on the perimeter. Shows toughness in the trenches and is willing to put up a fight with much bigger blockers. Reliable tackler in space with proper wrap-up. Can be late reacting to the run from depth. Fringe closing speed in trail that affects his effectiveness in man. Can get pushed around by blocker receivers on the perimeter. Stops his feet on contact leading to missed tackles and noticeable yards-after-contact. Takes plays off in pursuit.
