Q: What separates you from the other pro prospects at your position? 

My ability to present three different skills, running, catching the ball and blocking is what i specifically believe separates me from others. There’s not a lot of players in my positions, that I see can do all of these things in a game.

Q: What is your offseason plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities?

I plan on working on my mobility, flexibility and getting more explosive so that I’ll be able to go into professional opportunities being a big impact. I always want to show more than I did the last time I stepped on a field.

As a player, I’m known to be a natural leader at times. I would say leadership would be one of the main strengths I’ll be able to bring to a team. I practice and study a lot of ways to be motivational, so that I’ll always be able to have a clear mind and I tend to push that off on others because I know how impactful it is for me.

Q: What is your final pitch to the NFL and any other pro leagues?

Playing D2 gave me the opportunity to show my skills and talents beyond measures and even when I didn’t think it was where I should’ve been, I’ve always remained the same person, no matter the positions, who was better than me or who I was better then. I always kept the same chip on my shoulder and I feel it’s time to get it off.
