To better myself and my team on and off the field and go out as a champ.

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

They would say I was willing to do whatever it took to win and that I was someone who was going to always push my teammates to be better and help in anyway I could.

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

I study how defensive scheme move and how players move around in inside of the schemes. Also understanding their schemes depending on the down and distance. I try to focus on understanding how people try to plan against me and prepare for me and show them that what they prepare for is going to be different when they actually see me.

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

I enjoy doing the dirty work and helping the team win even if it’s not me making the plays. Running down field to make an extra block or picking up blocks in the backfield so the quarterback can get some more time. Also I’m a quarterback that plays running back.

Make sure I am healthy and work on the little things that can help better me to become a better player on and off the field.

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

I can play any position and I’m willing to go play any special teams. Off the field I understand the responsibility that comes with being a professional athlete and will respect the team and organization at all times. And I am always willing to put in extra work to better myself and my team.

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

If I am giving the opportunity you will not regret it. I am giving 120% from day one.
