Professional Football Player looking for speaking engagements, Advertising Opportunities and Corporate Engagements. I was born and raised in Springfield, Ohio, and attended Wayne High School in Huber Heights, Ohio where I excelled in football and basketball. Raised only 40 minutes away from The Horseshoe, I went on to fulfill my childhood dream of suiting up in that scarlet and gray uniform for the Buckeyes. My first season I was named Big Ten Freshman Player of the Year. I was also named (by me) the conference’s (unofficial) Recruiter of the Year ( when prized recruits came to visit players who had their choice of attending any college they wanted to; I took it upon myself to sell them on joining our program. And when I sold them on the Buckeyes, I did it with both of my hats on: “current player,” of course — but also “lifelong fan.” I sold them on our decorated past, our resilient present, and our promising future — the future of Buckeyes Football that we could be a part of building, together and it worked. Then, once Coach Meyer got here, everything really worked. Coach demanded nothing short of perfection from us — and our very first year we had a 12-0 record. Everything was coming together until I re-injured my shoulder in practice leading up to my senior season. I was out for the entire season and watched us become National Champions. Everyone began speculating I was going to transfer, but I never thought of leaving Ohio State. I began to learn a new position as a wide receiver and practiced under wraps. I then made one spin move and I felt I made it all the way back after everything I been through. My last game at Ohio State I thought about my son, Landon — who’s going to make a great Buckeye one day. I am retired from the NFL. I know football doesn't last forever, so I enjoy learning the tech space and connecting with entrepreneurs. I also want to inspire the youth with my brand CHARG1NG and make a difference in the community. #TeamGalaxy
