What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2025 NFL Draft?
I am able to create havoc plays and produce for the defensive side of the ball. I have also learned how to be an amazing leader and would be an excellent teammate! I am extremely coachable and have tons of experience with a lot of games played.
What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?
I had only 2 D1 walk on offers out of high school. I worked my way into a partial scholarship after one semester. My first season playing snaps on defense I finished starting every game and became an All-American! I also was selected as a finalist for the Buck Buchanan Award for the FCS national defensive player of the year. I’ve won a championship and have helped turn programs around from previous seasons.
If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?
Child healthcare! I hope to one day be able to help with building new hospitals in locations without any healthcare or guidance options. I also would like to donate to the different programs that allow you sponsor a kid. I believe these sponsors could truly be life changing for all of the children that are helped.
