The New York Giants typically employed a Cover-2 and man-to-man heavy defensive scheme, prioritizing strong press coverage and reliable tackling from their cornerbacks.
Initially rotational boundary/nickel corner with outside upside, developing into a starting reliable man-cover corner.
A purely zone-heavy scheme that asks off-coverage without much press responsibility, diminishing his athleticism and ball skills.
His athleticism and ball skills align well with the Giants' demand for versatile defensive backs, capable of both press and off-man coverage.
Selected #94 overall in Round 3 of the 2012 NFL Draft by New York Giants out of Virginia Tech.
