Q: What goals did you set and/or accomplish in your final collegiate season?
The goals I set for this past season was to lead the conference in sacks for the second straight year. I fell just short of that goal but exceed in other areas to make feel just as accomplished.
Q: What would your coaches and teammates say about the type of player you are?
My coaches and team mates would say that I am a leader on and off the field and master motivator. A player that plays with a huge chip on his shoulders and menace to opposing offenses.
Q: When you are studying film, what are the things you focus on to improve your game?
One thing I do when watching myself on film is break down each of my sets on each play. And determine where I went wrong or right. And then try and correct it when workout by slowing down and making every step perfect.
Q: What separates you from the other pro prospects at your position?
One thing that separates me is my versatility. I can go from at linebacker depth and dropping into coverage to hand in the dirt on pass rush or run downs even despite my size.
Q: What is your offseason plan to train and prepare for professional opportunities?
I plan to continue building on my skills that I have and focus on learn and growing my knowledge and playing abilities to be prepared for the pro level. Not to mention long days and late nights at the gym.
Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
My playing strengths that I will bring is my relentless motor and my high pass rush skills and IQ. And off the field I’ll bring passion and love for whatever community I become a part of like I have the past 4 years at Castleton. And hopefully I can be a resource for the younger generations.
Q: What is your final pitch to the NFL and any other pro leagues?
If your looking for a player with relentless energy, effort, and great leadership I am that person. On the field I’ll be the biggest student taking everything that is said and applying it. Coming from the division 3 level my work ethic will be unmatched. I have all the tools and knowledge needed to play at this level all I need now is a shot and I promise it’d be worth it. I have the first in last out mentality and I want to bring it to your organization.
