02Scheme fit
Ideal system

One-gap 4-3 penetrating front with a premium on interior disruption and quickness to attack gaps.

3-tech DTUnder Tackle
Best role

Year 1 impact 3-technique, developing into an All-Pro interior pass rusher and run defender.

Wrong fit

Two-gapping 3-4 defense that asks defensive tackles to anchor and occupy blockers rather than penetrate.

A highly disruptive force perfectly suited for schemes emphasizing upfield pressure from the interior.
