PFF Profile:
Arnold isn't the most polished cornerback in this class, but his high-percentile athletic abilities give him as high a ceiling as any cornerback in man or zone systems. Prepares like a pro. 5-star recruit as a S, can play anywhere in the DB but projects as a press man corner.
Arnold played mostly outside cornerback for Alabama over the past two seasons but gained some experience in the slot in 2023. He has great long speed, recovery speed, acceleration and agility. He also brings impressive ball skills with good on-ball production. With just one year as a full-time starter, he is a bit erratic in his style and had some missteps and whiffs on punches in press that got him turned around or off-balance. When he’s aligned and in phase, he has the talent to shut down all kinds of receivers. Though green on total snaps, he does show a good understanding of postsnap adjustments and man-match principles.
