What unique qualities do you bring to a potential college football program

The main qualities that I believe I could provide to a program would be how I lead by example, my moral values, and dedication to the sport. I’m always giving my 110% in practice and in games and never let up on a play or rep. I don’t drink, smoke, party, or anything like that. I’m completely dedicated to the sport and making myself and my teammates better. I believe that dedication and effort I put into the game and into winning is something a potential college football program could really use.

What has been a few of your favorite moments so far in your football career?

Winning 9 games in a row as a starter my sophomore year. Playing in two televised playoff games as a sophomore. Growing as a player and a teammate playing next to a sophomore my junior year.

Who is your favorite football player? Why are they your favorite player?

My favorite football player is Joe Thomas not only because I’m a fan of the Browns, but because he’s one of the smartest players I’ve ever seen. I frequently watch YouTube videos where he teaches technique to help better myself.

Do you play any other sports? If so which ones?

Track and Field, I throw Shot Put and Discus
