Who are some role models in your life?
Some of the biggest role models in my life are Jesus Christ, my dad, and my mom. They’ve all helped shape me into who I am—on the field and in life. They guide me in living the right way, with integrity, discipline, and faith.
What artists do you listen to pregame to get you hyped up?
Before games, I usually listen to Kendrick, Tee Grizzley, King Von, and YoungBoy. Their energy gets me in the right mindset to go out and compete.
What are the strengths of your game?
My biggest strengths are my ability to break tackles and my speed when getting in and out of cuts. I’m also very versatile—I can line up in the slot and catch passes or be an every-down running back. I take pride in doing it all.
What is your favorite memory of your career?
Playing in the UA Camp as a freshman was one of my favorite memories. Being on the field with some of the top recruits in the country gave me a great learning experience and helped me grow as a player.
Who is the best player you have ever played with or against in your career?
The best player I’ve gone up against is Clarence Chaney—he’s a tough competitor who pushed me to elevate my game.
What advice would you give to an aspiring D1 athlete?
Be consistent with your work. You don’t have to be the biggest, fastest, or strongest to be great—you just have to be willing to outwork everyone. Stay focused and stay faithful.
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Japan, without a doubt. I’ve always been fascinated by the culture, and it’s a place I’ve always wanted to experience.

Going to my first Detroit Lions game with my dad.
