"Heck of a football player, a takeaway machine. When you study him, watch his play, watch the way he does things, first and foremost, he studies the opponent, good understanding of his opponent, and anticipates very, very well. Tremendous ball skills, and a guy that seems to be able to see through the receiver to the quarterback and have a feel for when to be able to make his move."

"KJ's a guy that can come off the edge, and at the same time, he can stand up, be in the two-point [stance] ... He drops well into coverage, but one thing he does is his pass rush. Here's a young man that didn't get a lot of credit...because of the guys that were lining up next to him. He's a guy that has a real nice arm, but then he comes up and collapses it underneath with a good counter."
