What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2024 NFL Draft?

My versatility is what sets me apart from other prospects in my position. From playing running-back, wide receiver, kick returner, or punt returner. I am able to play any skill position on the field at any time.  

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

I started playing at the age of 5 with my older brother and was miserable. But the following year I switched to running back and loved the sport ever since.

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

I was a multi-sport athlete growing up and was highly recruited for Lacrosse before choosing football to play in college.

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

Wounded Warrior Project because supporting veterans is really important to me as they made the ultimate sacrifice for my freedom. Making sure they get the proper support and treatment for their physical and mental health is the least we can do. 

What is the best advice you have ever received?

Learn like you live forever and work like you die tomorrow

Who was your childhood hero?

My childhood hero is my dad because growing up I always looked up to him. Im always striving to become the man he is, his dedication and his relentlessness is the reason why my family and I are where we are today.

Who is the most underrated teammate in your locker room at your school?

Joe Eichman 5th a year senior and starting safety. One of the hardest workers I’ve ever known. A kid who earned his scholarship because of how hard and fast he plays on the defensive side. He is fearless.

What is your biggest pet peeve?

Bad breath

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

The hardest moment in my life to overcome was when I was very sick during my junior year of high school which is the most important year for my recruiting process. I was sick for over 8-12 weeks losing over 15-20 pounds but had to still attend recruiting camps and prospect days to get my name out there. Luckily, I was able to fight through and have some teams believe in me like UNH.

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

UNH will always be special to me as it was one of the few schools that actually believed in me from day one. From the coaching staff to my teammates we have been a family for the last 4-5 years. These are men that I will have relationships for the rest of my life. I. Guarantee there is no team closer than these players here at UNH.

What is your favorite snack food?

Ice Cream

What is the best part of football?

Gameday because you are able to showcase all the work you put in the last year or so and put it all together in one game.

If you could sell yourself in one sentence what would you say?

If you put me in a locked room I guarantee I would find my way out.

If you could compare your play to one player in the NFL who would it be?

Christian Mccaffrey because of his ability to be versatile on the field makes him that much scarier to the opposing side of the ball. Because they don’t know what he’s going to do next.

If you could have dinner with three people dead or alive, who would it be and why?

My Uncle Joey would be the first person I want at that dinner. Because he was one of the only people that truly believed in me and was one of my biggest supporters before he passed away. The second person would be David Goggins. Just learning from him and getting pure motivation from him alone would get me fired up and ready to run through a brick wall. Lastly, I would eat with Walter Peyton because he’s one of or if not the greatest running back in the history of football. Just being in his presence alone would be unbelievable.
