What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2025 NFL Draft?
I’m a physical wide receiver who thrives in contested catch situations, attacking the ball with strong hands and aggression at the catch point. Tough to bring down after the catch and a willing blocker in the run game.
What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?
I’m a hardworking individual committed to not just improving myself, but also elevating my teammates to another level. From the field to the locker room, the film room, and outside the facility, building a positive team culture that pushes us men to be better is all a part of my purpose with this game. I believe God has brought us together for a purpose—to win in all aspects of life—and as professional athletes, we express that through our passion and dedication every Sunday on that field.
If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?

Overcoming adversity is what defines character, what was the hardest moment in your life to overcome?
Tearing my ACL my senior year of High School during recruiting before going into college and having doubts about what was next for me athletically.

- King Solomon- to give me some wisdom about my life personally on how to be the strongest leader and how to achieve greater feats than he did in my own life.
- Randy Moss- To pick his brain on the game and what it takes to be a successful wide receiver, especially the mindset he developed to reach the highest level.
What is your biggest weakness?
Sometimes over-relying on physicality at times and not letting other skills be displayed more often
