Scouting Report
Evaluated 10/18/2023
Projection
First RoundComes from a running back family but has the speed and pass-catching ability to play receiver or see a hybrid role in college. Has the skill set where he can play receiver but could also still motion into the backfield and be handed the ball some. Has a college ready frame. Strong and breaks tackles in the open field, and is also tough to re-route or press at the line because of his build and strength. Track background that includes a 10.55 in the 100-meter dash as a sophomore and a 21.31 200 that shows up when he gets off the line and hits his stride in the open field. Not only has track speed but has some wiggle, though he runs by defenders more than he makes them miss in a phone booth. That twitch can be seen as a route runner, though he can still add to his technique and route tree. Catches the ball well away from his frame and tracks it well over the shoulder. Dangerous return man who can continue being a kick and punt returner in college. Not the kind of player who has to be put in a box -- an offensive threat and scoreboard changer at the next level no matter how he touches the ball. Likely a future high draft choice with his combination of size, verified speed, and versatility that any offense can use. The scary thing is that he is far from his ceiling and will get technically more adept and stronger in college.
H.S. Athletic Background

As a junior, placed third at the Missouri 5A state championships in the 100 meters (10.55) and 200 meters (wind-aided 21.31). Ran additional Spring 2022 100-meter times of 10.60, 10.64, and 10.77, while cracking 22.00 in the 200 at least four other times, including a wind-legal 21.46. Added a 50.72 400.
Ran sophomore track season-bests of 10.89 in the 100, 21.94 in the 200 (third place in Missouri 5A), and 50.81 in the 400 in Spring 2021. Ran an 11.00 100 to finish sixth in Missouri 5A at the state meet.
