To all the undrafted guys… I didn’t hear my name called either & it ended up being the BEST thing that ever happened to me. I played 14 years & got a Super Bowl ring…it all started with that moment. It forced a level of urgency, humility, & edge that never left. You don’t get the luxury of waiting your turn now, you take it…one rep, one meeting, one day at a time. Draft status might get you in the door, but it won’t keep you there. Show up early, stay late, & stack days where coaches never have to question your effort or intent. Learn faster than everyone else, & don’t waste a single rep. This league rewards consistency time & time again, not potential. To set yourself apart…Be dependable in a world full of talent. Your attitude, your preparation, your response to adversity…that’s your resume now. Make it IMPOSSIBLE for them to cut you. Make them feel your presence every single day….There are NO more excuses.

Dream fulfilled. Heading to the Mile High City. #ProIllini x #NFLDraft

What once was a dream is now reality. Ready to work @giants

Blessed is an understatement! Let’s get to work.

You heard him, @Patriots. He’s ready.
