Q: If you could describe your style of play in 3 words, what would they be?
Chris: Explosive, Unique route runner and Game-Changer!
Q: How are you going to train/prepare this offseason in preparation for the draft or other pro opportunities?
Chris: Right now, I am currently training at Atlas Performance in Chandler, Arizona with Preston Hale. He is putting a huge emphasis on speed and explosion which is what I pride myself on. I also train with guys like AJ McCarron and Brandon Bridge at QB Country.
Q: If you could compare yourself to one current or former NFL player who would it be and why?
Chris: I would compare myself to WR Antonio Brown. Our game is alike in many ways when it comes to work ethic, route running, speed, and play making abilities.
Q: When you are studying film, what do you focus on or look for?
Chris: When I am watching film on an opponent, I focus on many things. First, I study the guy who will be trying to defend me. Whether he is aggressive or patient? Does he like to bring physicality to his game, how are his hips, can he run, does he look for help from the safety? I also want to see what the DC play style and what does he like to call in certain down and distance.
Q: What separates you from other players at your position?
Chris: The thing that separates me from guys in my position would be my competitiveness, I refuse to be told no! My work ethic, I am a fast guy that can run routes and can make plays. I also can play every special team i.e. KR or PR.
Q: What kind of abilities would you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
Chris: I could bring a lot of abilities to an organization: I love to win; my personality alone can bring life to any room I step in. I feel like if I can make a great long lasting impact on everyone I come in contact with.
Q: What is your final pitch/sell to NFL and other pro league scouts?
Chris: Whether drafted or undrafted/free agent it doesn’t matter. I will give everything I have in my body to make the best of every opportunity put in front of me. I have been playing this game since I was 4 years old and I have been told no my whole life, but I never let that stop me. It’s bigger than football, this game has changed my life forever and as long as I’m breathing I will continue to inspire others that you can do anything you put your mind to despite what anyone says, as long as you have faith in God!
