Q: What goals did you set and/or accomplish in your final collegiate season? 

I set a goal in my final college season to win our school first ever conference championship and unfortunately we fell just short of that goal. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of guys and coaches to play for in my last season.

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

My coaches and teammates would say that I’m a hard worker and very passionate about the game, I put my all into football year round and was very devoted to making myself better in all aspects of the game as well as trying to make the people around me better as well.

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

While studying film on myself most of the things that I look at is my footwork and my hands, especially being an offensive lineman those are the two most important things. I also watch the defensive lineman that I will be going to against to see how they play and what moves they use, sometimes you can pick up small things that they do which will determine how they are going to be playing during a specific play so I try to focus and key off those little things.

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

One thing that separates me is my agility, I am very agile and able to move quickly, which at my position is very important.

Q: What is your offseason plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities?

My off season plan is to keep working out and just stay ready, you never know when you might get a call or an invite somewhere so I plan on staying ready and being in shape as well as making myself better.

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

Some things that I think I bring to a team is my work ethic and leading by example, on and off the field I’m going to do the right things whether it is in the community or just at home, I also believe that my play style can mimic some of the current pros and I think that can be an asset to a team when they are looking for offensive lineman.

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

I’m grateful for everything Football has given me so far and I’m hoping that there are still more chances for me to compete professionally and that there are teams out there willing to take a chance on me and believe in me!
