Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
My understanding of the game, being able to retain and process information quickly is something that allows me to stand out on the field. Along with that, I’m a versatile player and I can do tasks that normally coaches won’t be comfortable with Linebackers doing. Off the field, I’m a very quiet, low maintenance guy. You won’t have to worry about any problems.
Q: What is your final pitch or sell to NFL and other pro league scouts?
Any team that decides to give me a chance, you’re getting a player who is going to give you their all. Someone who won’t stop working to get better and will put the team first. A guy who you won’t have to worry about off the field, and will be a great ambassador for your organization.
