It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:

Expand lead some.
The lead should also say he played for the Defenders but didn't play for the other teams.
"American professional"
New high school infobox formatting
"Early life"
Remove 252nd overall from lead
Change weight per PFR
Link pancake block
"a five-star prsopect" typo
How did he go from a four-game suspension to banned all in the span of one season? lol
- Presumably he was suspended for PEDs, then continued after the suspension ended (so then 10 game suspension), and continued after that suspension ended, so indefinite suspension.
Put an asterisk by Team 9.
Remove 2019 from infobox
It says he was released by DC, but he was claimed off waivers? Shouldn't it say he was "waived" by DC.
"He was released on April 14" add "without appearing in a game".
Any personal life details? College bios usually have stuff like that.
- Didn't see his college bio or personal life details.

I don't think there's much more to say about this guy. Nice work! ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 06:55, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@WikiOriginal-9: I think I addressed everything (everything done except those with notes). (Also, not sure if you're aware, but for three years he was the only post-2012 draft pick missing an article, after being deleted at AFD!) BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:10, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, I didn't see that. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 00:15, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I did a spot check of the sources and didn't find any more issues? ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 19:48, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
