What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

Maddyn bleeds the game of football—he studies the game, the plays, and every position. From morning to night, he’s working on his craft and bettering himself. He trains 24/7 and sometimes with that— up to 3 hours a day, driven by his dream of making it to the NFL. At just 10 years old, his passion and dedication are unmatched. He’s a true team player who lives for the brotherhood the sport brings. Football isn’t just something he loves—it’s who he is. He was born for this.

Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

Maddyn is inspired first by his dad—he wants nothing more than to make him proud. He models his game after Lamar Jackson and Travis Hunter, pushing himself daily with the dream of earning that same recognition. He works hard to inspire others through football, showing what’s possible with passion and drive. His motivation also comes from within, and above all, he gives glory to God for every step of the journey.

What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

There have been so many proud moments, but the ones that stay with me are the ones that show his heart—helping up players that he tackled always telling them “good job,” having his teammates backs no matter what even if it means taking more hits himself. He always tells his linemen, “Without you, I can’t do my job—my glory is also yours.” Even when they may have struggled a bit or if a season was hard, he never stopped thanking them. He knows it’s not about him—it’s about the team, Always!
