DeLuca has played in two-deep, single-high and slot-man coverage with varying degrees of success. He has adequate size with decent athleticism, but his instincts and field recognition help to speed up his play and take him to the football. His paths to the football are fairly accurate when playing over the top, but his speed to range and get there on time to make a play is suspect on the next level. DeLuca is a willing, aggressive run supporter but might not have enough reactive athleticism to get to as many tackles as teams would like. The traits are average but his nose for the ball gives him a chance.
