I started playing football at 4 years old.
My biggest strength as a player is being able to make plays for my team inside and outside of the pocket.
As a quarterback, the whole team looks up to you. With all eyes on you, you have to carry yourself a different way on and off of the field.
My personal goal is to have 40 plus touchdowns, and receive division 1 offers.
I have learned that as a player, there’s always room for improvement, and i can always get better no matter how “good” everybody says I am or can be.
This summer I mainly worked on increasing my speed. Last year I only had 2 rushing touchdowns all year, but this year I already have 8 in the first 5 and a half games.
What motivates me is my family, there’s nights where my mom is up working until 1,2,3, and even 4 o’clock in the morning just to make sure I’m ok and I have everything I need.
Most of my hobbies consist of sports, basketball and football. Other than that I play video games sometimes but sports is the main focus.
The fact that I can throw any ball you need me to on the field, whether it’s on the run, in the pocket, pressure,or no pressure.
Last year we went a disappointing 5-6 and lost in the first round of the playoffs. This was tough for us giving the fact that we just came off an undefeated championship season, we weren’t used to losing.
My biggest role model is my dad. He is a great man that put his family and God first. He has always been my role model on and off the football field.
I would want the colleges to know that I will NEVER give up. If there is something that I’m struggling with, you will see me working on that constantly, until I get it right, then on to the next!
