Michaels lines up on the inside on the defensive line (most times) and uses his speed, quick hands to get off blocks, and into the backfield. He’s a very aggressive player, showing excellent length to fight off blocks. In his Centennial film he went up against some solid lineman in the class of 2019 and played exceptionally well. Looks like the junior could potentially add another 20-25 pounds in the next few years.
Michaels has good size. Can gain somewhere between 20-40 pounds. Can line up at all 4 spots on the defensive line but also could flourish as a outside backer of some sort off the edge. Michaels wingspan is the key part to his game as well as speed. Overall if he grows and gets faster he definitely has a chance to play and compete at a D-1 football program in a smaller conference.
