To me he did what he was supposed to do. Turn him back inside where had help in case he missed tackle, which sadly he did. Won't bag on him though.

I'd want to review the few seconds before that clip starts, the approach angle looks funny but that could be due to the shielding from the receiver.

It's a piss poor tackle though, his head is way out of place and he tries to go too high rather than taking the legs. That tackle should be meat and drink, the TE can't even hand off as it comes from the side he's holding the ball.
"I wouldn't take him for a conditional 7th. His next contract will pay him more than he could possibly contribute.".

Kid played well last week against Tampa... I think he'll be a good one. Just needs to get thicker/stronger and keep sticking his nose up there in run support.
