What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2025 NFL Draft? 

•  My versatility! I’ve had many different roles in each running back room I’ve been in. Being able to adapt has always helped me stay on the field. When I first came into college I was asked to be a power back, fast forward to today I am asked to be a speedster and shifty out of the backfield. I am comfortable in any situation as a Back. Whether it’s a LB coming on a blitz, a choice route, or a long run Mister Hogue will always be a name known to get the job done. 

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

•  My work ethic will be worth the check!! I’m a workhorse by nature, if you give me a job I work tirelessly to get it done to its highest potential. As a teammate I can lead from any position; from the practice squad, to the starting line up I can lead those around me to be better just be the exciting energy I bring to the game.

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

• I’d say joining the university of Alabama after first going to Carson-Newman. It was a lot of hoops to jump through to make such a big jump in my path. I didn’t get it the easy way and I’m proud of that. I found a way to play in the SEC and for Nick Saban which was a dream for me. I had to reinvent myself as an athlete to fit the mold of an Alabama running back and hold the standard set before by so many greats. I would say this was a defining moment for me and my character due to the hardships and questions concerning my career that I overcame to be able to do this interview with Draft Diamonds.
