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

I wanted to rush for over a thousand yards and score 5 Tds, hoping to be a front runner for my team. I reached my first goal but fell short of my Tds. However i did become a big part of my team and the small success we did have which i appreciate.

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

They would say I’m a silent leader, i may not say much but my actions speak for themselves. I do what I’m supposed to and Im a team player, i support us through the good and bad times. I am also a little goofy but serious when the time comes.

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

I focus on my pre play reads as a back, determining blitzes and aiming points for my routes or holes i take. I also look at my demeanor before and after plays, making sure I rush to the ball, and the defense cant read our plays based of my alignment. I also check my footwork snd eyes to make sure I’m making the correct reads before a play and my mid play adjustments if things didn’t go as planned.

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

What separates me I would say is that I’m not one dimensional, I can be used in every aspect from running the ball, catching out the backfield, and putting myself in front my Qb to block and look to block for my other teammates when the ball isn’t in my hands. Also for me being a taller back my vision and pad level i believe to be one that makes me a threat on the field, since I’m expected to run high. I also have the ability to adapt to situations and make something out of nothing. I try to take pride in not letting one individual take me down on the field always making sure i try to fall forward snd not backwards or sideways.

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

Right now i’m training alone doing workouts in and outside of my home. weight training to build more muscle and a meal plan to help with weight gain. i’m also looking for a trainer in my new environment to help me in building my body. I also am planning trips back to georgia to see family and train with ex teammates and old trainers.

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

I’m easy to get along with and i’m coachable, on the field i take my job to heart and make sure everything is done correctly and to the best of my ability. If a mistake is made I’ll take steps to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Im very adaptable, whether it be to an offense, an organization, or to my environment. Off the field i’m very outgoing, I’m good at communicating and hold myself to a high standard in terms of being on time and being kind to everyone around me. If the opportunity presents itself then i try to do something for others whether it be big or small.

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

I am a unique individual, i bring not only my athletic prowess but my loving personality. I want pro programs to know with me they get a player who listens and will do whats needed and more for the program. While also receiving someone who cares about more than just football but for others and the things i can do for them. If given the opportunity no matter where I will make the best of it and make sure to give it my all and help change it for the better.
