What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2026 NFL Draft? 

Im a top prospect because Ive got a deep understanding of the game and the ability to adapt to any system. My work ethic and leadership skills push my teammates to perform at their best, and I thrive under pressure when it matters most. With elite physical attributes, durability, and strong character, Im ready to contribute from day one and make an impact on the field.

What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?

One thing NFL teams should know about me is that Im relentless in my pursuit of improvementwhether its watching film, refining my skills, or learning from my mistakes. I never settle for good enough and am always looking for ways to get better, both on and off the field. That kind of drive is what sets me apart and makes me a long-term asset to any team.

If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be? 

If I could donate to one cause, it would be to mental health awareness and support, especially for young people. Mental health is such a crucial part of overall well-being, and a lot of people dont have the resources or the education to deal with it effectively. By funding programs for mental health education, therapy access, and early intervention, I think we could help break down the stigma and provide real support to those who need it most.

If you could have dinner with three people dead or alive, who would it be and why? 

Sure! If I could have dinner with three athletes, Id pick Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, and Muhammad Ali. Jordans legendary mindset and competitive spirit would be fascinating to discuss. Serenas resilience and dominance in tennis would offer some incredible insights into overcoming obstacles. Alis larger-than-life personality and his activism beyond boxing would make for a truly thought-provoking conversation. It would be an inspiring mix of excellence, determination, and social change!
