I didn't realize he not only played WR as a FR at UNLV, but he actually started a couple of games at WR. So he's a versatile athlete. I wonder if he'll play WR or DB at UH?

I believe he was purely a DB last year but played mainly on ST.

On the Fall Camp roster.....especially with DaMarco Moorer being a non-qualifier & UTEP grad transfer Justin Prince no longer on the roster.

Definitely helps with the depth after those two losses.

Looked like he has some type of right shoulder injury. Fortunately, he can still take a medical redshirt this 2023 season and still have 2 to play 2 for the next 2024 season.
