Bio
AT COLORADO: 2016 (Sr.)—He played in all 14 games, including the Alamo Bowl as well as one start (at Arizona, where he played the entire game – 73 snaps in all). He was in for 152 snaps overall on offense, appearing in six different games, and was credited with three touchdown blocks (direct), three perfect plays on passing touchdowns and one knockdown block. He graded out with a 2.38 figure (top game grade was 2.26 against Oregon State when he was in for 21 plays). He was in for all 68 snaps on the punt team (one of the protectors) and played an additional three snaps on the field goal/PAT unit.
2015 (Jr.)—He played in all 13 games, including five starts at right offensive guard (over the course of the final six games of the year). He was in for 721 snaps from scrimmage, as he alternated at times in the games he didn’t start; he was one of four players who played all 114 snaps on offense at UCLA, which set a school record (and it was actually 115 when counting a two-point conversion play). He had 338 “plus” plays for a 46.9 plus-play percentage, and graded out to 80 percent or better in seven games when counting plays that were graded neutral. He had 19 knockdown and eight touchdown blocks, along with 10 perfect plays on touchdown passes; he was flagged for just two penalties, allowed 21 pressures and nine-and-a-half quarterback sacks. Top game grade was a 91.1 percent effort against Arizona (with a 62.2 figure against Arizona State for his highest plus-play percentage contest). He also played all 65 snaps on CU’s field goal/PAT unit on special teams.
2014 (Soph.)—He saw action in one game at guard, playing 21 snaps at Southern California (he had eight “plus” plays and nine that were even for a game grade of 81.0 percent). He was ruled eligible to compete after transferring from Auburn in the offseason; the NCAA granted a waiver to the rule where a player must sit out a year (CU filed a waiver for him due to family reasons). He enrolled at CU in the summer, joining the team in late July and thus in time to have participated in August drills.
AT AUBURN (2012/2013, Fr.,/Fr.-RS)—He saw brief action against Western Carolina and Florida Atlantic for the Southeastern champion Tigers, and dressed for the national championship game against Florida State (a 34-31 loss). Auburn was 12-2 overall and defeated Missouri, 59-42, in the SEC Championship game. He redshirted as a true freshman for the 2012 season; he had enrolled at Auburn in January and participated in spring practices.
HIGH SCHOOL—He was named to the prestigious 2011 Parade All-America Team as a senior, his top honor among many in his prep career; SuperPrep also tabbed him as an All-American and ranked him as the 24th offensive lineman in the nation (and as a member of its All-Midlands team). Rivals.com ranked as the nation's No. 22 offensive tackle and the 212th-ranked player nationally, while Scout.com pegged him the No. 33 tackle nationally and the No. 299 overall prospect in the country, with ESPN.com ranking him as the No. 28 OT nationally and 247Sports.com 35th at the offensive tackle position; all four had him as the fourth-rated player overall from the state of Colorado. He participated in the U.S. Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio after the season. He was an All-Colorado and All-State (5A) selection by the Denver Post as a senior, which ranked him as the state’s No. 5 overall prospect (the top offensive lineman) in its postseason Top 15. He was an honorable mention All-State performer as a junior, and was a two-time All-Continental League performer. His senior year, he had 43 pancake blocks, did not allow a quarterback sack or pressure by the man he was guarding, and had numerous downfield and touchdown blocks. Under coach John Vogt, Chaparral was 7-4 his senior year, 9-3 his junior season, and 8-3 both his sophomore and freshman years. He also lettered once in basketball, playing center in a reserve role as a junior.
ACADEMICS—He graduated with a degree in Communication in December 2016.
PERSONAL—He was born October 9, 1993 in Denver. He is an avid country music fan.
