Take us through game day, How do you prepare?
• Always start the morning off thanking God for waking me up and bringing me to that day, I’m more of a distant person on game day I don’t like being around many people cause I’m in my head most of the day visualizing the plays that I see myself making in the game . Before kickoff when I’m sitting in the locker room I listen to a song with the lyrics, “I been destined for greatness all my life” and I keep the song on repeat cause it just gives me tunnel vision to go be great.

• My cousin Kedrick, he passed away when I was 15 and I didn’t really know how to feel about it when the even happened cause of how “young” I was, he used to always talk about going to the NFL an going to play college football and never got the chance to do either. So I made it a mission that his dreams would live through me no matter what I had to go through I was gonna succeed for him.
What motivates you to work hard?
• A lot of things really specifically my people, when I’m working out I think of my little brother’s voice and some of the things my mama has said to me about our situation and it just drives me to go harder honestly
