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

• I have always loved football but the first formal time playing football was in 1st grade

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

• I am confident in my abilities and respect others’ abilities as well, but they will have to show me their ability every down constantly.

What would it be if you could donate to one cause in the world? 

• Gun Violence, I believe there is so much outside of Milwaukee Wisconsin that the people in our community don’t even realize and decide to stay because it is all they know. I have lost a few friends due to gun violence that have shaped me into who I am today as well as one of my teammates in college that I played with at Wisconsin.

What is the best advice you have ever received? 

• Football is a game in which you have to ask yourself if are you willing to take food off another man’s plate to put food on the plate for your family (About football)

Who was your childhood hero? 

• My Parents didn’t have anything handed to them and made everything work even though we didn’t have the fanciest things. They found a way without making it easily visible that they were struggling. I was the oldest so I have seen my parents in this state more than my younger siblings.

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

• Dru Polidore

What is your biggest pet peeve? 

• Grinding of teeth on a spoon

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

•  I have gone through big-time surgeries and lost a lot of family/friends. I have lost my best friends to gun violence and was close to it myself. Even being through that trauma my hardest adversity was seeing my mother struggle still to this day raising my siblings and not having much help from their dads. I want to change my family tree and make sure my mom doesn’t have to work again and create opportunities for those around me.

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

• Montana is filled with mountains and great people. It’s a calm city that loves its football and I enjoy it very much. This setting is nothing like where I’m from where you have to look over your shoulder and be on edge so much. The people here are honest and genuine and you can’t ask for anything better. A great supporting community that creates opportunities

What is your favorite snack food? 

• Apples and Peanut Butter

What is the best part of football? 

• Creating memories with my brothers I am competing with, as well as competing with other players that are great at what they do as well.

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

• A consistent dominant force that will do anything for the team’s success.

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

• If I had to compare I would say my mentality is most similar to Marshawn Lynch but I enjoy taking bits and pieces from every person’s game to be the ultimate well-rounded back

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

• Kobe Bryant, Barry Sanders, and Bo Jackson are some of the greatest athletes to ever play their respective sports and I respect them for their mentality and being able to share their knowledge with those around them. It shows the type of people they are. I would love to learn from them and take in all of the info that I can.
