When I was being recruited (as a Quarterback out of St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale), I heard that there was a benefit of being a dual sport athlete. Do you think the benefit of playing football all year long is more beneficial in today’s game?

"Playing dual sports is still beneficial. I wouldn’t say that flag football has completely replaced that aspect. Flag football is a different style of game compared to tackle football. But for skill position players, there is a huge advantage in it. The skill position players get to go up against some of the best of the best in practice. I’ve definitely seen a huge advantage over the years for kids who play in these seven-on-seven leagues."
