Favorite part of spring football…
Just us getting better as a team and it gives us more time to work on our craft. Spring football gives a lot of players a chance to learn and step up.

Playing inside or outside…
I'll play wherever I'm needed. I like playing end, where they have me at now. I've played a lot on the inside as well. I just work at the position wherever I'm needed to be.

This spring I'm focused on…
I want to get better in pass rush situations, and perfect my hand placement and other fundamentals.

Favorite part of football…
I love it all. I loved it since I started playing little league at age 5. I kind of played off and on back then, but then I started back playing in high school.

Role Model…
It's obvious, my parents. Other than my parents, it would be J.J. Watt (defensive end for the Houston Texans). He's a constant hard worker. He was an under-the-radar guy and a walk-on at Wisconsin, and then out of nowhere he just kind of showed up. He worked hard and obviously made a name for himself.

Favorite NFL team…
The Houston Texans. I'm not from Houston, but from that area. It was my first NFL game I went to, Houston vs. Tampa Bay, I think. I was pretty young. And they won. That was my first official pro game. We had good seats in the end zone, and the best part of it was that I got to shake Andre Johnson's hand.

Favorite NFL player…
I have a lot of favorite NFL players. Growing up Warren Sapp was my favorite, but now there's a whole bunch of guys that I like. It's mostly defensive guys, but then there's a couple offensive guys that stick out –– I like Zeke Elliott, but not the Cowboys. I like Julio (Jones) and D-Hop (DeAndre Hopkins).

Things I like to do…
I like a lot of cartoons, animated-type stuff and video games.
