Q: What goals did you set and/or accomplish in your final collegiate season?
I wanted to receive all-conference honors and other things like not giving up any sacks. Even though I didn’t meet those specific goals. I was fortunate to be apart of some very historical accolades at ODU like helping Blake Watson rush for a single game school record of 259 yards. Things like that will hold weight with me forever.
Q: What would your coaches and teammates say about the type of player you are?
I would like to think they’d call me something along the lines of reliable. Someone who’s a team player and can get the job done by any means.
Q: When you are studying film, what are the things you focus on to improve your game?
When watching film I’m looking at things like my feet (first and second step in the ground), my head (where is my head and shoulder on the defender), and my hands (do I have proper placement depending on the play scheme).
Q: What separates you from the other pro prospects at your position?
My athleticism and ability to get things done on the field. I can and will make it happen. My ceiling for growth and versatility as a player are both much more superior than my peers as well.
Q: What is your offseason plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities?
Aside from the elite pro day training I’ve been receiving from coach John Kasa I’ve been focusing on the consistency in technique that’s mandatory as an offensive lineman with the help and training of coach Logan Tuley-Tillman.
Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
I always find ways to bring value in my role no matter how big or small it may be. I do my job & do it really well.
Q: What is your final pitch to the NFL and any other pro leagues?
Whoever takes the chance on me won’t regret it. Wherever I end up, that program will have gotten better for sure.
