SCREEN DISCIPLINE + SECOND LEVEL RANGE
Sells pass protection, checks the interior rush and maintains proper screen timing before locating the linebacker in space and finishing through the whistle.
COMBO CLIMB + PROCESSING SPEED
Anchors through the initial interior contact, disengages cleanly from the combination block and navigates traffic with balanced footwork to secure the second level defender.
PASS PROTECTION + POCKET INTEGRITY
Maintains a wide base and square positioning with inside hand placement, then recovers against the bull rush by resetting his feet and reestablishing his anchor.
