Started 32 of 47 games (2018-2021). Caught 143 of 210 targets (68% catch rate) for 2242 yards with 77 first downs and 19 touchdowns. Has thrown 1 career pass that went for a touchdown. Has 3 career rushes for -9 yards. 15.86 average on 7 kickoff returns.
The good:
X receiver (deep ball guy) for a spread offense that can play the deep slot. He's fast with a second gear, ran a 4.28 at the combine. Has a large catch radius and capable of making jump ball catches. Limited Route that he excells in. Run blocking is comparable to N'keal Harry's. Does a good job getting seperation on deeper routes. It's a track meet after the catch once. Gunner and coverage team ability along with kickoff return man abilities.
The bad:
Undersized for an X receiver. Has small hands for a receiver. Not quick enough to run underneath routes or for the quick game. Gets knocked off routes easy. Hips allows defenders to catch up when changing angles or making turns. Not a contested catch guy with a past history of drops. Struggles with ball control in traffic. Is too worried about taking hits and getting injured. Struggles when a safety is put over the top.
He will need schemed touches in the short passing game. Is better suited ability wise to play the Z and will need development at the next level to get there. Projected as a number three or four receiver. Struggles versus man coverage and allows corners to play him and not having to worry about focusing on the ball. Average intelligence for thr position. Knack of using his chest and pads to catch the ball too often. Runs a 7.25 three cone, slow for a Patriots receiver.
Was expected to be a mid day three developmental pick. Who has been compared to Robbie Anderson, Ashley Lelie, Tijuana Underwood, Mike Wallace and John Ross.
