PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT

Winston Jr. is a long, rangy, and physical safety best suited for box safety, nickel, or Cover-3 strong safety roles. His elite tackling, burst, and pursuit speed make him a high-end run defender who thrives attacking downhill. However, his high-cut frame and inconsistent eye discipline in deep coverage limit his upside as a single-high safety. If used properly in an attacking zone-heavy system

CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS

High-End Starter Potential (65-69)
A player expected to become a top-tier starter within their first few years. They possess strong physical tools and good technical skills but may have some limitations in their game. With development, they can reach near-elite levels and provide consistent impact at their position.
