Throwback linebacker with size, toughness and aggression. He has power and contact balance that keeps him from getting pushed around and can stop runners dead in their tracks as a box thumper. He's effective tracking a runner's lane choice but needs to play with better recognition of blocking scheme to stay ahead of climbing blocks. Bituli lacks functional speed and is too clunky as an open-field tackler. There are defenses who covet size and aggression inside who may be willing to overlook Bituli's limitations if he can star on special teams.
