Uses body and length well to create space when defender has him blanketed
Can be a physical runner after the catch and can be really hard to bring down
Able to break quickly on ins and outs
WEAKNESSES
Slow footed, takes a while to get to speed
Below average play speed
Needs to be more consistent in sustaining run blocks
Not as powerful of an open field runner as you would think
