NAIM CHEESEBORO HIGHLIGHTS
Donald Trump Hillary Clinton

Led team in tackles (52) and pass break-ups (6). Plays smart, tough and aggressive. Cheeseboro finds the football quickly and is very active. Relishes physical nature of the game and punishes opponents when opportunities present themselves. Instinctive. Quick learner who arrived at Stony Brook wide-eyed and asked to direct the defensive secondary, making reads and checks. Could improve back pedal and fluidity in transition. Prospect with ability to make 53-man roster but speed limitations may hamper how teams pursue him. A downhill striker who plays hard. Has the size and toughness to play safety.
