From ESPN SCOUT:

Size-Strength-Range
Does not show ideal size for the position and lacks the length to grow. Has good strength in his game and has the speed to cover ground and close quickly on the ball.

Instincts/Take On Skills
Used up and on the edge and is best to chase the ball to make plays. Reacts and adjusts his chase angles from the back side. Shows solid hand placement at the point to play off blocks.

Tackling
Aggressive and physical when making a tackle. Will run through his tackle and has consistent ability to finish with his hips and arms. Has flexion and is capable to drop his hips and make tackles in space.

3rd Down Capabilities
Used to rush the passer and is aggressive in his rush approach. Has a burst and can turn the corner, is relentless to the passer and is effective. Added size and power will compliment his burst. Developing skills in coverage in both technique and experience.

Bottom Line
Jeanty is an aggressive run and chase backer who will make plays and is active on the edge. Can be limited due to his overall size and lack of experience in coverage. If used correctly can develop into a Power 5 caliber backer and will be best to move inside.
