H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 02/15/2023
Projection
2-3 Round Day 2Highly productive high school player on both sides of the ball. Excels at coming down with contested passes. Can split out like a wide receiver and shows comfort in space and with tracking the ball over his shoulder. Does not play in-line as much but size and his physicality on defense suggest he will be able to do it. Has shown he can stretch the field and be a receiving threat but we have not seen him do as much after the catch yet and do not have verified straight-line speed at this time. Still has room to grow physically and we expect him to get a lot stronger come college. Difference maker of a tight end who can play early and be a high-major starter.
