Professional career

Lance Zierlein of NFL.com predicted that he would go undrafted, stating "While he's got decent play strength, solid hand usage and the desired motor, his smallish stature will be tough to overlook for teams during the draft. With that said, he's a good football player and will get his shot in a camp."
