What makes you a top prospect at your position  in the 2022 NFL Draft? 

I’m very confident and comfortable in a variety of coverages, especially man coverage where I believe I can win every matchup over the course of any given game, which is what I’ve also put on film.

At what age were you first interested in the sport of football?

I’ve been interested in football for as long as I can remember I cant really put an age to it.

What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?

I only played football my senior year of high school after missing nearly all of summer practice/workouts due to injury from basketball forcing me to join the team only 3 weeks before the season. I haven’t been playing football as long as most, I have a high ceiling and I’m still improving year after year.

If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?

In the 8th grade being told I was too small to play football and getting cut from the basketball team in the same year.

Tell me something about your school and why it is so special to you?

The culture is great and I believe it’s the best NAIA football program in the nation. I’m blessed to also be playing under a young head coach who I believe will eventually go down as one of the best to ever do it.

What is your favorite snack food? 

Nutri grain bars

What is the best part of football? 

The best part about football is making a big play or getting a big win and getting to share that joy with your teammates.
