|
| A developing corner with good size and a solid game, Houston has the physical style to play in press coverage as well as the abilities to be used in a zone system. Offers a good degree of upside, yet must complete his game before he’ll see action as a starter. |
| Biography: |
| All-Conference selection as a junior when he became a full-time
starter and posted 45/3/13. Started nine games as a sophomore,
registering 20 tackles and breaking up eight passes.
Pos:
Feisty cornerback with a cocky attitude. Aggressive throughout the
action, fights hard to defend throws and backs down to no one. Jams
opponents at the line of scrimmage, is fluid turning his hips to run
downfield and quickly breaks to the throw. Effectively positions
himself to defend the throw after locating the ball in the air. Works
well in zone coverage.
Neg:
Gets turned on occasion, does not display top instincts and is slow
locating the ball with his back to the action. Struggles transitioning
downfield and shows a bit of hesitation to his game.
