Has both speed and strength
Strong lower half to get off blocks and power into contact
Is bendy and flexible
He plays best when free as a sniper and where he can play quick and uncontained

WEAKNESSES
Desperately needs to improve tackling. He has missed a lot of tackles in college and he needs to lower his pad level into contact.
Also, needs to wrap his arms into tackles better as shifty players evade his tackles
Needs to react better when his assignment breaks down
His reaction times are a split second late. He can anticipate, but he just needs to react to it better.
While he is instinctual, those instincts usually take him to the line of scrimmage and prefers to be in the action rather than covering
SUMMARY
Noah Sewell is a physical, high-effort linebacker who plays with awareness to read and react. Sewell has some position versatility and has a good set of pass-rush moves to be effective from the edge. He plays better on the ball than off the ball, where although he can cover from the slot he is best attacking the ball, defending the run and using his physicality to take over a game. Penei Sewell’s younger brother who plays with the same nasty, toughness.
