He appears to have command of his sets and is making the most of his talent. He has a nice arm and throws deep with touch. He has a clean overhand delivery, with no noticeable hitch in his motion. He throws a catchable ball; often leading his receivers and giving them an opportunity to run after the reception.

Play-action is where he excels. He utilizes polished ball fakes to freeze the secondary and throws with accuracy on the run. Whether moving or in a stable pocket, he sets his feet and steps into his throws.
