Growing up, were you inspired by any NFL Players?

 Not as a kid but as a freshman, this isn’t even NFL player yet, he will be soon. I was inspired by this dude, his name is Luke Wypler. He was at St. Joe’s, now the starting center for Ohio State. I was influenced by him because he was the same build as me but probably an inch taller maybe, cause I saw him in person against Rutgers and I was on the field, like the sideline and we were like the same height and he had cleats on so I don’t know. But yeah I was thinking to myself watching his film, if he could do it, then I can do it u know.
