What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2025 NFL Draft?

My ability to get the ball back. Also my athleticism and not only my athleticism but my IQ. This allows me to understand what an offensive coordinator is trying to accomplish and put myself in a position to take that away

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

I am a competitor and a hard worker looking to do whatever it takes to help the team be successful.

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

Lupus Foundation of America 

Who was your role model?

My parents both set a great example for me. They taught me to strive for my goals and never give up or quit on something you started. 

Who is your favorite NFL team?

The Jets 

Who is the most underrated teammate at your school?

Rj Lamarre, is definitely a guy who doesn’t get the recognition I feel he deserves. He’s an extremely hard worker and shows up for his teammates every day.

What is your biggest pet peeve?

I hate seeing people bring others down instead of uplifting them. 

Who is your favorite teacher ever?

ms.Yodowitz my 11th grade English teacher, mainly because she got me to enjoy a subject that I’ve always hated growing up. She was a great listener and I would talk to her about anything that I was dealing with in my life and give me great advice. 

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

I would say being under-recruited coming out of high school. Going into my senior year with 0 offers really drove me to work extremely hard and that stayed with me throughout my college career which led to me earning a full scholarship after my redshirt sophomore season.

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

Probably IHOP I love pancakes 

What is your favorite snack food?

Cereal is my go-to 

What is your degree in?

Psychology 

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

Brian Dawkins really picked his mind about having that dawg mentality. LeBron James to understand what it takes to be so successful in your sport for so many years. Nelson Mandela would be the last person, it takes a lot of resilience to serve 27 years in prison and then become the president of South Africa. 

What is your biggest weakness?

Sometimes I feel the passion I have for this sport can be negative because of the expectations I set for myself and my teammates. I can at times be emotional instead of playing with emotion which is a big difference
