For a kid who came in as a QB, switched to RB and then a receiver, he is doing great.  He is not used to catching the ball and running routes but he did a solid job for us this season.  If he stays in that role, I would expect more see more catches, more yards, more yards after catch and some scores.  I don't think we have seen all of what he can do because he is still learning.  Once he is comfortable in his knowledge of what he is doing and what is going on, we will see more runs after catch like we saw on his first reception in the Minny game.

In that game, he made the catch and gritted out a first down, setting the gritty mindset of the Orange in the game.  That is what I expect of him.  He will use his natural abilities and tough competitiveness to get the extra yards and scores.  His hands improved steadily over the year.

If he is better suited for TE, then so be it, move him there and let him settle in.  If HCSS moves him to LB or DB, then do so now.  He is a diamond in the rough and will play on Sundays if he does not lose focus and sticks with the moves.  His attitude is infectious in a good way.
