“The Best There Is, The Best There Was, and The Best There Ever Will Be”

Born and Raised in a small town of about 30,000, DJ was overlooked by all the scouts for every major National Ranking Website. He led the State of Mississippi with 14 INTs his Senior Season. His team just fell short of the State Championship, but DJ was invited to the 2021 Mississippi/Alabama All Star Game where he won MVP with 2 INT, 3 PD, and 1 FF. He is the true definition of a Ball Hawk!!!
