What was your first impression of being a Jaguars Rookie? I couldn't have been drafted to a better spot. God has a perfect plan. The impressions of the people I've met already and how excited I am to continue to be coached by these guys and play with these players make me feel like I'm at a perfect spot.
What is your favorite memory from your rookie year of college? 2022 against Northern Illinois University. We were down by a lot. It was the third largest comeback in Ball State history. I remember we were out of the game. It was 3-28 at half time and we came back and won the game in double overtime, and that was my first real good game. I had two touchdowns as a freshman and felt all the love from the coaches and the seniors. There was nothing cooler than that.
Who is your 2026 Rookie Class best friend? Dean Connors with the LA Rams.
What is your favorite thing about Jacksonville so far? It has phenomenal people and beautiful beaches.
