Coaches Q&A with Dick Beck:

Q. What are his strengths at running back?

A. He’s deceptively strong. He likes to run off-tackle. He has great game speed and is much faster than he seems. He has great vision and great field awareness. He has very good hands. He can do a lot of things and we like to move him around.

 

Q. Does he play special teams?

A. Yes he does. He returns kicks and punts for us. He did well for us all year and had a 70-yard return for us in the playoffs against Pennsbury.

 

Q. This is the first year he will play defense for you. What are some of his strengths?

A. He has good field awareness and can find the ball quickly.
