Highly productive inside/outside linebacker with a nose for the football but a penchant for injury. The three-year team captain lacks desired size and explosiveness, but has succeeded with rapid diagnosis and scrap agility to find the football. His instincts help him play faster than his stopwatch speed, but he also gets himself in trouble by prematurely overflowing the action and losing his optimal positioning. Hansen has a talent for making impact plays and can be hard to knock off of his feet, but his tackle-finishing and coverage are very average by NFL standards. He has the talent to become a long-term backup, but his injury history will be an obvious concern.
