Q: What goals did you set and/or accomplish in your final collegiate season? 

Going into the season, I wanted to first win our conference and be named First Team-All Conference & All American. Simply put, I accomplished both.

Q: What would your coaches and teammates say about the type of player you are?

My coaches would say that I’m coach-able, ambitious and supportive of my teammates. My teammates would say that I’m a team player, encouraging, & determined.

Q: When you are studying film, what are the things you focus on to improve your game?

I look for patterns and the tendencies of my opponents. Knowing what your opponent is about to do before the snap, and strategizing your response, wins the game.

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

I can play every position on the line, that makes me adaptable & flexible. I have the athleticism to make sure the ball is carried forward and can guarantee my QB won’t be touched.

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

I’m currently training 5 days a week and eating healthier. I’ll be starting a meditation guide to keep my mind healthy as well.

Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?

Versatility. I can fill in any position or wherever the team is lacking. My ambition & trust in my teammates to do what needs to be done, makes it easier for me to do.

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

I love the game of football, I’ve been training and praying for the opportunity to show just how much I do. I want to have a mutually beneficial relationship with whatever franchise chooses to take that chance with me. There is a lot of talent out there, but talent gifted by God comes once in a lifetime. I’m confident my talent and gifts will be seen and highlighted.
