Scouting Reports

ESPN Post-Draft Analysis

Dane Brugler (The Athletic) draft guide:

SUMMARY: Sanoussi (sa-NEW-see) Kane was a soccer player growing up in Harlem, until he found football in eighth grade. He attended Blair Academy (a boarding school in New Jersey), where he played both ways on the football field, including both cornerback and safety (also wrestled and ran track). A three-star recruit, he signed with Purdue (over Baylor and Ivy League schools) and became a starter for his final two seasons, combining for 151 tackles as a junior and senior (533 snaps on special teams over his four-year career). Kane can key and diagnose in the run game, and the ball carrier often goes down when he makes contact. His instincts are underdeveloped and leave him late reacting to throws (gets hung up on zone reads and play action), but he has the speed and physicality to stay attached to tight ends in man coverage. Overall, Kane needs to cut down on the wasted steps, but he is a physical presence in the run game with matchup potential in coverage.
