Q: If you could describe your style of play in 3 words, what would they be?
Bryce: Aggressive, Fast, and Smart.
Q: How are you going to train/prepare this offseason in preparation for the draft or other pro opportunities?
Bryce: In prep for the draft and other opportunities I am working on improving my speed and footwork.
Q: If you could compare yourself to one current or former NFL player who would it be and why?
Bryce: Tyrann Mathieu, because I play with the energy and passion as him. Also, I can cover wide outs, tight ends, and receivers and am willing to throw my shoulder in against anyone, no matter who they are or how big they are, my size is never a factor.
Q: When you are studying film, what do you focus on or look for?
Bryce: I tend to focus on tendencies, what teams do in certain situations on any down and any situation. I look at the pass concepts they will run, to the field or boundary, short or long yardage, and anything that will give me an eye into what teams are trying to do against us. I also look at what a player does against press or off coverage, how they run each route and any tips they give as to what they are going to be doing on a play.
Q: What separates you from other players at your position?
Bryce: What separates me is that I am a long corner that can play corner or nickel. I am an aggressive corner who will come up in run support and can cover well downfield.
Q: What kind of abilities would you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
Bryce: I am a leader, I push everyone around me to push themselves past where they believe they can go. I pride myself on getting everything out of the people around me on or off the field, and in doing so give them that back in return. I am a man who is strong in my faith and morals that I was raised on all of my life. Also, I am a person who wants to be great in everything that he does on or off the field, and someone that wants to achieve in every field of human endeavor.
Q: What is your final pitch/sell to NFL and other pro league scouts?
Bryce: By picking me on your team you are getting not just a player, but a man that is versatile on and off the field. I can play anywhere on the field and off the field, I am someone that looks to motivate and be better each and every day than he was the day before. I am someone that does not take this game for granted and you will see that from me each and every day that I step onto the field.
