Q: What goals did you set and/or accomplish in your final collegiate season?
One of the goals that I was able to accomplish in my final season is to be a starter & best possible teammate & leader I could be for my team.
Q: What would your coaches and teammates say about the type of player you are?
Most would agree that I’m just a guy who doesn’t say much & just puts his head down & work. It’s just in my nature.
Q: When you are studying film, what do you focus on to improve your game?
I’m a huge tendency breaker I look for bad habits in my opponent’s that can help to my advantage & things that I also too could eliminate to help elevate my game to the best it could possibly be.
Q: What separates you from the other pro prospects at your position?
My work ethic I just believe no one works as hard as I do & given the opportunity I planned to prove that. Anyone that has ever been around me could vouch for how hard I push not only myself but others around me.

I plan on to continue my training here in San Antonio & finish my schooling unless further opportunities deem otherwise.
Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
I’m a versatile player throughout my time in college I’ve played a multitude of positions including Safety, Inside & outside linebacker with a lot of snaps on special teams. Off the field I believe that I am a guy who can become a positive role model & influence any community/environment that I am around.
Q: What is your final pitch to the NFL or any other pro leagues?
I’m a guy who’s going to come in compete every single day. I’ve never wanted anything handed I work for everything my work ethic & faith are the main things that have gotten me this far. Given the chance I know I will be able to prove my value to someone on & off the field.
First I want to thank God for everything that I’ve been blessed with & allowing me to play this game. Thank you to my family, teammates, Utsa coaches & the entire staff for taking a chance on me & helping with my growth over the course of these 2 years. I’m forever grateful.. pic.twitter.com/4reKRX92LC
