Paul notes that he strives to be like JJ Watt, mentioning, “I love watching Watt because of his amazing skill set and how he gives it all every play.”

Outside of the gridiron, Paul is on the track and field team and uses that to work on his cardio and footwork.

Simon talks about the CFCFPC as a big opportunity, “To improve my current skills, learn new skills and work as hard as I can.” comments Paul. Paul never looks away when there is a chance to get physical on the field.

Simon’s take on why he loves the game. “I love the contact and hitting aspects of the game and that it takes a full team to win games.”

Paul’s graduating year is 2019 and is looking to take his skills to the next level.
