Q: When you are studying film, what are the things you focus on to improve your game?
When I’m studying film, I focus on a few key things. First, I analyze the opposing team’s offensive scheme to identify potential weaknesses and opportunities. Second, I study my own performance from previous games to identify areas where I can improve my technique, footwork, and tackling. Finally, I watch film of other successful linebackers to learn from their techniques and strategies, and to adapt and incorporate them into my own game.

Mentally, I am working on improving my ability to read offenses and react quickly through film study and practicing situational plays. I’m also working on developing strong relationships with coaches, trainers, and other professionals who can help me to reach my goals.
Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?
On the field, I believe that my physicality, quick reaction time, and leadership skills will be an asset to any team. I have a proven track record of success in college, and I am confident that I can translate that success to the next level. Off the field, I bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and a willingness to mentor and encourage my teammates.
