High school safety who transitioned towards the line of scrimmage, ultimately becoming a full-time linebacker. 

Came from safety and grew into a linebacker. Still has further room to fill in. Athletic, has played some on offense and shows ball skills and ability in space. Will be very good in coverage at the next level even as he adds weight. Son of a coach and has great football I.Q. Reads keys well and then has the athleticism to get to where he needs to be. Physical and will take on blocks. Needs to build his body into that of a college linebacker but has the frame to do so. Should be capable of playing multiple linebacker positions in college.
