Maddox is a savvy nickel defender who understands leverage and traffic inside. When healthy, he can make the slot feel much less comfortable for opposing quarterbacks.
Strengths: Slot instincts, quickness and veteran coverage communication give him meaningful sub-package value.
Weaknesses: Availability has been a concern, and bigger receivers can challenge his smaller frame at the catch point.
