What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2025 NFL Draft?
I think at my position being able to do what I do at my height and speed is different. 6 ‘6 235 running from sideline to sideline as well stopping the run on the way to the quarterback.
What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?
I’m a very hard worker and always want to improve my craft at any means. Taking me will be a huge steal.
If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?
I’d probably choose to donate to initiatives focused on universal access to clean water. Clean water is foundational to health, education, and economic stability, yet millions of people still live without it.
Who was your role model?
My mother is my everything that leads the way for me.
Who is your favorite NFL team?
Cleveland Browns
Who is the most underrated teammate at your school?
Robert Hotlz
What is your biggest pet peeve?
I’d say my biggest pet peeve is when people jump to conclusions without taking the time to listen or consider other perspectives. It’s such a missed opportunity for learning and connection. Everyone brings a unique view to the table, and it’s amazing what can happen when we’re open to understanding each other.
Who is your favorite teacher ever?
My elementary teacher still to this day.
Overcoming adversity is what defines character, what was the hardest moment in your life to overcome?
Being away from my mom while playing football and she had got covid for the first time and covid was killing people bad that year. So just knowing my mom is a diabetic and having covid is something I asked God to help me with.
If you could have any franchise restaurant in your house what would it be?
I would definitely have to go with chipotle
What is your favorite snack food?
Chips
What is your degree in?
Business
