Coaches Q&A with Donnie Hawk:
How is he on defense?
“He is a good cover guy. Phil will lock people down. He is a talented football player and technically sound. He plays man-to-man coverage and is good at it. He is just as good on one side of the ball as the other.”
What are his strengths on offense?
“Vision, strength, speed, great hands and balance. He’s the complete back and he can block. He understands the game and is like a coach on the field.”
Is he playing special teams this year?
“He really wants to and we are going to let him go. It will depend on the game on how much we use him on special teams each week. But, as of right now he is our number one kick returner and punt returner.”
