Summary:

Kelee Ringo checks the height, weight and speed boxes for a man-coverage cornerback. He has exposure to press man, off-man and zone coverages. Problems arise when receivers use double moves or cut across his face. He does a good job of being physical and playing the ball in the air. Ringo needs to do a better job of coming to balance and making a form tackle.

Strengths:

  • Great length and speed to play man coverage
  • Willing to play downhill and attack the flat
  • Versatility having played press man, off-man and zone coverages
  • Solid ball production in two years of play

Weaknesses:

  • 11.3% missed tackle rate in 2022
  • Can leverage him off the snap if the jam does not land
  • Average-to-below-average gather and re-direct
  • Double moves and routes across his face can get him turned around

Combine Results:

  • 40-Yard Dash: 4.36 seconds
  • Vertical: 33.5 inches
  • Broad Jump: 10 feet, 2 inches
