My Heart and determination to not be denied nor overlooked. My leadership on and off the field, a team first attitude, the knowledge and passion for the game, the ability to analyze information while paying attention to the small details then executing a plan of attack to succeed. My ability to hit and impact the run game from the secondary. I’m discipline in coverage. Quick feet, fluid hips and a Ball Hawk. I’m an extension of the coaching staff on the field. Team and fan favorite (It’s bigger than football for me. I want to impact lives on and off the field).

To any team willing to take a chance on me, you will be getting a God fearing man who truly loves and enjoys the game of football. Someone who is going to always give it their all and has something that you can’t coach… HEART.
