"Heck of a football player, a takeaway machine. When you study him, watch his play, watch the way he does things, first and foremost, he studies the opponent, good understanding of his opponent, and anticipates very, very well. Tremendous ball skills, and a guy that seems to be able to see through the receiver to the quarterback and have a feel for when to be able to make his move."

-- Ron Rivera
