Pass protection

Yeboah has also stayed in to pass protect on a regular basis and has had some decent results when doing so with no sacks surrendered and just a couple of pressures. He shows an ability to stay in front of his man, reset his feet to redirect and can anchor against a bull rush.

Here’s one play where he lost the initial leverage battle and got driven back, allowing his man to get off his block with an arm-over move.

Run blocking

Yeboah did a lot of blocking at Temple so he has some good experience in that area. However, he graded out poorly as a run blocker in 2020.

He does show some positive traits though. He’s aggressive out of his stance and competes well at the point of attack. He can be effective trapping up the middle as a lead blocker or pulling across the formation.

have to wonder if they will attempt to bring him up to the active roster because he could be an active receiver option tight end that can pass block but will be irrelevant in the run game unless he has improved on the practice squad...

Special teams

Yeboah has played in a variety of roles on special teams, including on the punt coverage unit where he’s played both as a lineman and as a punt protector. He had three tackles in three years in this role.

He’s also blocked on the kickoff return unit and on the wing during placekicking attempts.

Yeboah did both kicking and punting while he was at high school.

Instincts

As noted, Yeboah did most of his damage by finding open spots in opposing defenses. This was something he had a good knack for. As a blocker, he’s often tentative and unsure of who to block when in space though.

He didn’t appear to screw up any assignments but did have one pre-snap penalty - a false start - in 2020.

Scheme fit

Yeboah played for three different head coaches while at Temple, but preferred Lane Kiffin’s system with Ole Miss because it gave him a chance to contribute more as a pass catcher.

He projects to a move tight end role at the NFL level, which is the same as he played in college. Maybe if he improves his blocking, he could contribute in a versatile Kyle Juszczyk-style role eventually.

Yeboah was a teammate of fellow rookie Elijah Moore once he transferred to Ole Miss.
