What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2026 NFL Draft? 

I think I offer a lot of positional versatility. As the game continues to change there is a demand for players who are Swiss army knives. 

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

I love learning the game, and am a football nerd.

If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?

I would donate to causes that access education and healthcare in impoverished regions. A lot of people in the world don’t have a fair start at life, or a safe one due to poor medical treatment for pregnant and post partum mothers. I think those causes can impact those individuals positively as well as the rest of the world. 

Who was your role model? 

Ray Lewis.

Who is your favorite NFL team?

Baltimore Ravens.

Who is the most underrated teammate at your school? 

Billy Daal.

What is your biggest pet peeve? 

Velcro.

Who is your favorite teacher ever?

Dr. Oluseye Adesola. 

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

My freshman spring I dealt with a very difficult injury that was challenging to diagnose, as well as loss, and academic challenges. Coming through that with a renewed faith in Christ, as well as things getting better through those trials changed me forever. 

If you could have any franchise restaurant in your house what would it be?

Cookout!

What is your degree in? 

Electrical Engineering. Yoruba certificate.

What is your biggest weakness? 

I want to improve my man to man skills and generate more turnovers.
