He's impressed coaches and teammates with his route-running, acrobatic catches, and trash-talking against the Buckeyes' experienced defensive backs. “He's strong, he’s powerful and he’s big, but it’s his work ethic to me that just jumps out,” Day said. “He’s physically tough — I mean physically, he’ll get after you. He takes his game very, very seriously. He puts the work in off the field.”
