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

In my final collegiate season, I set a personal goal to have the highest average per punt in school history, and I accomplished that goal. Additionally, I wanted to improve my directional punting and limit return yards for the opposing team, which I was able to do by studying film and working with my coaches.

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

My coaches and teammates would describe me as a self motivated and dedicated player. I am always looking for ways to improve my game and willing to put in the extra work to achieve my goals. I understand the importance of special teams and the impact it can have on the game by helping our defense keep them on their side of the field.

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

When studying film, I focus on the tendencies of the opposing team’s special teams unit, such as their punt block schemes and return formations. I also analyze my own technique and speed to ensure I am giving them the most difficult blockpoint I can.

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

I believe what sets me apart from other pro prospects at my position is that I’m clutch under pressure. In high-pressure situations, I can remain calm and execute my punts with accuracy and distance. I also have experience as a holder on field goal attempts, which adds versatility to my skill set.

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

I plan to continue working on my technique and drill work with Mike McCabe. He has been a great coach for me in college and these last few months leading up to the draft we have been getting to work daily with eachother as well as competing with other free agents and current NFL and USFL pros. I will also continue to get in the gym and get stronger and increase my leg efficiency to consistently bring power to my punts.

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

On the field, I bring consistency and accuracy to the punting game. I am also able to provide a strong directional punt and limit the return yards for the opposing team. Off the field, Family is everything to me. I am going to be a dedicated teammate who takes care of my guys.

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

My final pitch to the NFL and any other pro leagues is this: I am not just a punter. I am a game changer. I have the ability to control field position, limit return yards, and swing momentum in our team’s favor. I am dedicated to perfecting my craft and continuously improving my game, so that I can bring unmatched precision and consistency to any team. I am not just looking to make a roster, I am looking to make a difference. So let me prove it to you. Let me be the player who makes the game winning punt that takes us to the championship. Let me be the player who never gives up, no matter how tough the situation. Let me be the player who helps bring a team to greatness. Thank you.
