A young interior defender who was better in 2024 than 2025. Has plenty of room for growth physically but already exhibits surprising play strength at sub-300 pounds. Can mix it up and brawl in the middle but can get displaced by more technical interior offensive linemen. Wins with brawn over polish. Pass rush chops aren’t there, but he naturally muddies the pocket which will benefit those rushing around him.
Brings the wood when setting picks on stunts and twists
Lacks ideal length to keep his chest clean consistently
