Aggressively attacking 4-3 one-gap penetrating front that relies on quickness and disruption up front.
Initially a rotational pass rusher who can develop into a starting 4-3 defensive end due to his athletic potential.
Two-gap 3-4 defense where his primary responsibility would be holding the point of attack rather than attacking.
His rare size and athleticism profile suggests he can be a disruptive force in a scheme that prioritizes penetrating the backfield.
Selected #53 overall in Round 2 of the 2013 NFL Draft by Cincinnati Bengals out of SMU.
