I think hes a pretty good tackler.
Imo I think he struggles more when he has to cover great distances down the field. I think in shorter distances he can use his instincts and quickness. Maybe it would be a disaster but I think it's worth a try. Hes got good hips and change of direction and instincts, I think the downfield speed is kinda tough.
From games I've watched too he loves being down involved in the run defense and getting his head in there.
