Chip Kelly's up-tempo spread offense, emphasizing vertical routes and precise timing to stretch defenses.
Could immediately contribute as a dependable chain-moving slot receiver with X-receiver upside.
A run-heavy, pro-style offense where targets are limited and blocking is a primary responsibility would diminish his impact.
His size, speed, and reliable hands make him a versatile pass-catching option for any spread-based scheme.
Selected #42 overall in Round 2 of the 2014 NFL Draft by Philadelphia Eagles out of Vanderbilt.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
