“He works his tail off in the weight room and the offseason. He always says “hey, how you doing …and he doesn’t say just “Hi.” He really asks me “How am I doing? How am I feeling?” He’s probably the most transparent and available guy on the field for me and as a friend … He’s a hard runner, a hard worker, and it pays off on the field.” –Abe Mellinger, Senior Wide Receiver
