- Cameron is a built like a running back and runs routes with enough physicality to fight through contact. He also snaps off his routes with quality suddenness to create space.

- He excels when running shorter, in-breaking routes, such as slants, whips, hitches and curls. These specific routes showcase his short-area quickness.

- The Baylor product can be a weapon by getting the ball into his hands quickly and letting him go to work. Cameron's play-strength to pinball off contact and wrestle through arm-tackles aids his overall playmaking ability.

- Strong and reliable hands allow the receiver to pluck the football out of the air and away from his frame. As a result, Cameron is a good red-zone target on fade and back-shoulder throws. He helps his cause with late hands to attack the football at the last minute.

- Cameron offers alignment versatility. He can play the Z- and slot-receiver positions to generate advantageous matches.
