Mychal Kendricks' Player Profile

Mychal Kendricks showed steady improvement each year. He made 29 starts in 51 games. This past season in 13 games he made 106 tackles, 14.5 TFL, 3 sacks, 2 PBUs and 2 INTs. In 51 total games he had 258 tackles, 36.5 TBL, 13.5 sacks, 7 PBUs and 4 INTs.

Kendricks is an excellent athlete. Has explosive speed, and is a very good blitzer. Tracks the ball well, is a reliable tackler and big hitter. Good work ethic and motor. Uses hands well to break free of blockers.

On the short side, 5’ 11”. Needs to improve on shedding blockers despite having the hands to do it. Has trouble picking up blocks at times. May be better suited for OLB than ILB.
