Q: What goals did you set and/or accomplish in your final collegiate season?
Set out a goal this year to win a National Championship for Mount Union, unfortunately we came up drastically short in the playoffs. Wish I could’ve played better this year to help the school get a championship, which means a lot to the people at Mount Union.
Q: What would your coaches and teammates say about the type of player you are?
I would hope my teammates would say I was a brother to them. I was blessed to play with some great people and the University and I was undeserving to play along side them. Great people at that school.
Q: When you are studying film, what are the things you focus on to improve your game?
Can improve a lot… finding consistent footwork and base when moving in the pocket is the main focus right now in training.
Q: What separates you from the other pro prospects at your position?
I’m very confident in the coaching I received at Mount Union. The opportunity to learn from coach Larry Kehres for multiple years is a great advantage. Learning about football but also learning from the selfless character he demonstrated everyday.
Q: What is your offseason plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities?
The plan for the past couple months has been trying to learn as much as possible. Get as uncomfortable as we can get in training and throwing to see where we need to improve. Learning from other guys in the same boat but also those who have played in the past.
Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
My college coaches may have to answer this one , not sure how I can answer that one.
Q: What is your final pitch to the NFL and any other pro leagues?
The game of football is the greatest sport of all time. The attention, teamwork, and physical dedication it takes to play can teach you a lot about who you need to be as a person. An opportunity to keep playing this game, buying into something bigger than yourself would be an awesome experience to learn from.
