Personal Statement

I have always wanted to go to college, get my education, play football & hopefully drafted to the NFL. It has shaped my life & has a significant impact on my values & beliefs. Playing football is difficult, but it taught me so much. I had to learn what my assignments were . I've learned to think about others before myself & how important it is to work hard. Being around my friends and working out, has helped us bond. Unfortunately, one time I had to take a break to focus on my grades. It was difficult for me to balance worrying about grades, helping mom & playing sports at the same time, so I had to take a break from something I loved to do, which was football. I did not understand, but now I know why my mother did so. Coaches are not ONLY interested in your athletic skills but your academics. Football is the learning ground for me. It improved my personality & character. Football is a sport that allows me to reflect on my life. You must prepare for success in both ways. When you see my profile, you may see one position. Once you see my videos, it will show you how coachable and versatile I am. I have my coaches to thank for this.
