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

I set many goals for my final college season. Some were big some were small. Not only individual goals but team goals. I wanted to have an 1000+ rushing season which I accomplished. I wanted to have 500 receiving yards which I fell short of. I wanted to be first team all conference and higher which I did. I was first team all conference as well as first team all region. As for team goals I wanted our team to be league champs but fell short after losing to Colorado mines. Which led to the next goal going 14-0 we also fell short of this as we lost to Central Washington in the first round.

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

My coaches and teammates would say I am the type of player that will grind hard. They would say I am tough, hard nosed and aggressive when I play. They would also say I can make a play when we need one. I’m also a great teammate on and off the field.

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

When I watch film I like to look at how the DL and LB’s like to move as well as how they line up. I look at their stances and tendencies. I see if they load the box or spread it out. That helps me know if I should keep it between the hash’s or try to bounce it outside.

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

What separates me from the others in my position is the speed, vision, balance, the surprising power I have, and how light I am on my feet. My quickness and shiftiness allows me to always make the first person miss. ALWAYS. This also allows me to go out to slot and make plays out there. My hand eye coordination is immaculate, making it easier to make plays out of the back field.

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

My offseason plan is to continue to get bigger, faster, stronger, and smarter for a pro day. To continue to be grateful for all the opportunities that continue to come my way.

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

The strengths and abilities I would bring to a team would definitely be making big plays not just on the game field but on the practice field as well. I would bring my ability as an all around athlete not only as running back but as a receiver and special teams guy. Off the field I would bring the energy to the meeting rooms and always have a great attitude.

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

Overall, I am ready to show any team that I can be a game changer . I am an athlete that makes plays and will always make plays. I am versatile and will earn every minute of playing time. It will be straight grind mode from me. Even more importantly though, I will make a difference off the field. I am someone who loves the game but also loves to build relationships.
