AT COLORADO: 2016 (Fr.)—He played in all 13 games plus the Alamo Bowl, as he was one of only four true freshmen to see the field in 2016 ... A versatile player who appeared in all three phases of the game (offense, defense and special teams), his biggest contribution was on the kickoff return unit where he returned 17 kickoffs for an average of 22.6 yards; his long of 48 came against No. 4 Washington in the Pac-12 Championship game ... Became the first Buffalo defender since Greg Henderson in 2013 to record a take-away in each of the first two games of the season, as he recovered a fumble in the season opener against Colorado State and had an interception in week two versus Idaho State (they were his only two on the year) ... Was in for a handful of snaps on offense, was in for 53 on defense, recording three tackles and he had one quarterback pressure … Picked up a first down on a 10-yard rush at USC, which came on the first rushing attempt of his career - his only offensive statistic of the season although he practiced on that side of the ball along with defense all fall camp and in the first month of the regular season ... Finished fifth in special team points with 20, as he was on several units; he was in on nine tackles (three solo), with five knockdown blocks, three forced fair catches, two first downfield credits that altered returns and a caused penalty.
