A base 4-3 defense built on a one-gap penetrating front that can generate pressure with its front four, frequently rotating its defensive linemen.
Year one rotational pass rusher who can develop into a starting 4-3 defensive end with his versatility.
Two-gap 3-4 defense where his explosiveness would be nullified by read-and-react responsibilities.
Wootton's athletic profile and ability to play multiple techniques make him an intriguing fit for a modern, aggressive 4-3 scheme.
