Q: What were some of your goals heading into your final collegiate season?

My goals this season were to win a RMAC championship, make a run in the playoffs, for our defense to break records, and to go All-Conference and All-American.

Q: If you could describe your style of play in 3 words, what would they be?

Physical, Technical, Explosive.

Q: How will you train and prepare this offseason for the draft or other pro opportunities?

I am currently training at the Landow Performance Center.

Q: When you are studying film, what do you focus on or look for?

The first thing I look for when studying film is Offensive Lineman tendencies. For example, if he is pulling, does he give it away. Then, I look to see if a Lineman gets in a different stance for a pass or a run. I also look for weaknesses in the offense from everyone across the board.

Q: What separates you from the other players at your position?

The ability to make plays. I have the speed to catch the ball from sideline to sideline. I play through the whistle, never giving up on plays. I have a high motor that shows on film.

Q: What kind of strengths and abilities will you bring to a team that will stand out both on and off the field?

I am very coachable. I have a great football IQ. I am always working to improve something from week to week in season and off season. I take excellent care of my body and I am a good communicator on and off the field.

Q: What is your final pitch or sell to NFL and other pro league scouts?

I have excellent speed, strength, and I am very explosive off the ball. I am willing to play anywhere the team needs me. Everyday I come into the office, I am looking to get better and I never settle. I am always striving to become a better football player in all aspects of my game.
