This off season, I set to work hard in the weight room, working on my linebacker techniques. I want to set the tone for the whole season. We didn't win but It was a good reality check in week one! Now, we are ready to reach our full potential. During week one I focused on playing through all 4 quarters at 110 miles an hour per quarter.

So far this week, we've worked on keeping our focus by making good reads and we're focused on obtaining the "W" this week. We want to play as a team defensively and get all 11 to the ball. This week I'm focused on making tackles and big plays, and getting turnovers!

During the first game of the season there were times I flashed greatness, but it needs to be consistent. I'm always working hard to improve my conditioning, reads, and being a much better leader on the field. This season is a year for me to be a playmaker. Big players make big plays in big situations.
