The journey, the challenge and the purpose behind every snap. Gaining brotherhood, the grind and the opportunity to become better every day. Its about discipline, character and pushing through when others quit. It's about the roar of the crowd, the pressure of game day, and the quiet confidence built in the offseason. Proving the doubters wrong. It's about making plays, scoring touchdowns and knowing every drop of sweat had a reason behind it.
Nick is inspired by NFL players who overcame adversity and proved the doubters wrong. Off the field, Nick is most inspired by his family. He sees the hard work, sacrifices and dedication they put in every single day. Nick's inspiration comes from watching people lead by example, both on the field through discipline and off the field through love. That's what fuels his drive-not just to win, but to become the kind of person others can look up to.
Nick has demonstrated exceptional dedication to football over the past 9 years playing tackle and flag football. All the moments in his journey make his family proud. From touchdowns, interceptions, all the yards ran, and to wall full of trophies, MVP awards, certificates earned, team captain several times to be scouted to play All American Flag Football but also that he has never given up!!! It's not about the points on the board-it is about overcoming the taunts and pressure from others.
