Could you imagine being in this position when you were starting off at Georgia Military College? Or at South Carolina?


Looking back, when I was a Blazer, I never pictured being in this position. I played football for fun in high school. I was pretty much told to play it because I was too big. So I went out there and played for fun and it paid off. I’m glad I chose to play football.


Has it been cool to be playing close to your South Carolina home?


Being close to home really doesn’t matter to me. I don’t mind going far away from home. Because when I was at South Carolina, my mom lived like 35 minutes away and I never went home unless I had to. I kind of know how to stay away from home. But I am glad that this team chose to pick me, because it worked out in my favor.


How did your experience at South Carolina prepare you for this level of football?


I had a great offensive line coach. He was on this level. He showed me the ropes. He coached us hard. We played against good competition every week. Everybody on this level is pretty much good. Taking that aspect from college and bringing it here has worked out well.


What do you have to do to compete for a roster spot?


Stay consistent. That’s the best thing for me right now is to stay consistent.
