"He's a young man who's gotten better as the season's gone on, and not only physically, but mentally, maturity wise," Sarkisian said."I would think he's going to want another year of that growth to put himself in position for hopefully a long career in the NFL. And he's got some unfinished business of what he came here to do and what he came here to accomplish."
