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

Honestly being a bigger receiver, I’m aware that I’m always going to be lined up with the better corner. When watching film I focus on releases and try to figure out tendencies based on certain down and distances. Also I pay attention to the type of defense that I will go against. Focusing on the defense and the certain personnel can make the game smoother for me come game day.

Immediately after graduation begin training right away. I want to stay ready and keep improving for when pro day comes I will put up great numbers.

My journey is my strength. Over time I persevered through so much to get this point. The ability I will bring to a team is hard-work and grit because nothing was never nothing given so being passionate on the field is all I know. Off the field I’m a proud man of faith. As times goes on meeting my new teammates I believe my wisdom in the lord and applying qualities to life will make me stand out.

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