| Zapata is very decisive and has little wasted motion in his runs. He has a great burst from handoff and accelerates out of rushing lanes with a full head of steam. He has very good top end speed, however he also does a great job of using the entire field and taking angles towards the sidelines to keep distance from defenders, which only adds to his breakaway potential. He looks to have very good hips. He can cut on a dime. |
