I will bring many things to whatever NFL team I go to. I live for competition and love to compete and get better.

I can make an impact on special teams too.

The final thing I would say to any future NFL teams is that. I will bring a lot to your team whether I am getting the game winning sack or giving the best look I can in practice you are going to get a hard noise reliable football player.
