“The range jumps off the tape,” Texans linebackers coach Chris Kiffin told KPRC 2. “The ability to cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time, he can accelerate. He’s very explosive I think for him it’s taking the next step in his game. He got the chance to play in a number of games as a rookie. So, now, really getting the new scheme learning it, I think he’s done a great job. Excited to work with him.”
