Billy Bowman

Lacks the desired height, frame, mass, and length and has a build and game similar to Budda Baker (Cardinals). Very short arms and reach. Displays outstanding range due to foot speed, agility, and instincts. Fantastic instincts and is rarely fooled in coverage or by play action. Plays with a great level of anticipation that allows him to make plays he should not have been able to do. Physical, hard hitter who supports aggressively against the run. Reads keys extremely well and fills the alley hard. Good tackler who sometimes goes for the big hit and fails to wrap up. Excellent ball athlete with good hands – has recorded eight INTs and seven passes defensed over the 2023 and 2024 seasons. Tracks the ball in the air like a CB and has the hips and fluidity to play slot CB. Very aggressive and sometimes finds himself out of position in man coverage as a result. Well-rounded safety that can be employed in a variety of positions – slot CB, in the box strong safety, or as a classic free safety deployed in the deep half of the secondary.
