Q: When you are studying film, what are the things you focus on to improve your game?
When I’m studying film what I like to focus on is the tendencies the people I will be going against have, I like to look at hands and footwork, know what someone as good at such as run blocking, pass blocking, hand fighting, pulling etc. I look at formations and try to remember plays that the opposing team likes to run so I can read them ahead of time before the snap of the ball.
Q: What separates you from the other pro prospects at your position?
What separates me from other pro prospects in my position is my passion, love and work ethnic for this game. I come from A D3 program that has been at its lowest peak the past few years and worked my tail off 5 years because the school is too difficult to leave. I’ve been fighting for the exposure I feel I’ve deserved and at D3 there is no handouts everything is out the mud and this built my character I know what it’s like at the Lowest of the Low and that made me strong and know I can pursue to play at a higher level in a better environment and potentially be a in a better place.
Q: What is your offseason plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities?
My off-season plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities is too continue being in the gym and getting on the field as much as possible, I workout with a private coach 4 times a week and I plan on cutting about 10-15 pounds and building it back to muscle so I can be a more agile/ flexible beast.
Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
The strengths and abilities I bring to a team that will stand out on and off the field would be my intensity ,character, athleticism and how I’m a leader that motivates and pushes individuals to excel and do better. I move very well for my size and love to compete, me being a oline/dline captain for the past 3 years I’ve lead them to excel to their full potential.
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 would be, You can’t miss out on a fierce competitor like myself my competitive nature makes me built to adapt and fight which makes me who I am. There’s no love for D3 football especially where I am and I feel I’m one that stands out. I really love what I do, Im ready to work im ready to make change for myself and any program I get the opportunity to be apart of I promise it will be one of the best decisions made. I don’t do what I do for games or for fun I do this to make a way out for myself and my family. Please consider taking a chance that will be an asset to your program, Thank You!
