What artists do you listen to pregame, to get you hyped up?
Eminem, Tee Grizzley, 50 Cent, Biggie, and J Cole
What are the strengths of your game?
I can impact the game on offense, defense, or special teams. I’m a playmaker. My strengths are my speed, strength, and competitiveness.
What is your favorite memory of your career?
At this point it would be winning the District Championship as a freshman on varsity while playing a major part of that victory.
Who is the best player you have ever played with or played against in your career?
Honestly, every week I’m going against the top players in Detroit and Michigan through the Sound Mind Sound Body program. Almost every 5 and 4 star is in the program.
What is some advice you would give to an aspiring D1 athlete?
It’s about talent, but more importantly it’s about sacrificing what the typical teenager does to get better through speed training, lifting, and RB and DB training. I see a lot of kids who want to stand out, but they don’t put the work in and just talk about it.
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?
The Coliseum in Rome
How old were you when you fell in love with the game?
When I came out of the womb! I couldn’t wait to play football with pads and hit people. I’ve always loved football and wanted to play in the NFL. I vividly remember my father telling me what it meant to wear our family’s name on the jersey before my first game as a kid. I will never forget that. I couldn’t sleep the night before my first game. I rocked some kids that first game and everyone said I would play in the NFL after that game.
If you could meet one sports hero, who would it be?
It would have been Sean Taylor
