1.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 12 appearances.

Strengths

  • Ceiling. High potential at just 22 — room to grow into a bigger role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 6.8% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.

Outlook

Rated 51.1 overall — a solid contributor and squad regular. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 1.9×) with the best seasons likely ahead. With this floor already at 22, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
