Quote:

Evans has both speed and quickness as a boundary corner and strong safety. He doesn't look as big as his dimemsions indicate but is very athletic at both positions. A very good athlete that has excellent agility and flexibility. Good football instincts and can change direction without losing speed or body control. Active player in the openfield who takes proper support and pursuit angles. Demonstrates an aggressive blitz attitude and has great timing when coming off the football from the edge. Displays catch up speed and appears to have the ability to lock on and run with a receiver man to man. Needs to work on openfield tackling; doesn't always bring his legs with him and tackle up through the ball carrrier. Evans is a very solid athlete with good ball skills that is probably suited to the corner position especially as a lock down defensive back.
