What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2026 NFL Draft?
I don’t think I am a top prospect, I’m still playing D2 football, but I think my biggest positive as a prospect is my size and speed, and how fast I can develop, I went from starting 1 game at WR in high school to being a all American. This will also prove true when I take another step in the 2025 season
What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?
I will live in the facility, I understand I have one shot at this so I have to be the first one in and last one out. Love talking offensive schemes and watching film
