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

I am a cerebral player with a great knowledge of the game. I obsess over the nuances of football and I am always trying to improve my game any way that I can. Everyone can run and jump, but I believe awareness is what separates me and other prospects at my position. 

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

I was first put into flag football during the summer of 2003 at 5 years old at my own request. 

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

I am a competitive and intelligent football player. I pride myself on blocking and being a good teammate.

Overcoming adversity is what defines character, what was the hardest moment in your life to overcome?

I witnessed a family tragedy at a young age, and I believe a lot of the strength that I have to overcome adverse situations comes from that happening to me. When your only option is to be strong, you get to show yourself just how strong you really are. 

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

From my official visit, everything about NSU felt like it was a family. I met so many great friends and made so many incredible memories, that I will always be grateful for my time at that University. It was one of a kind.
