Jordan: Hey Jared! There have been a great group safeties to play at Alabama over the years like my favorites Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and Eddie Jackson.

Did you feel any pressure following them and have you had a chance to learn from any former safeties during your time at Alabama??

Jared Mayden: 

Jordan was fortunate to have the opportunity to interview Jared thanks to ProCamps and their live #ProTalks series. Since the start social distancing due to the spread of the coronavirus, the #vincentsgo3on3 boys have had to get creative on how we interact with our sports heroes. Fortunately, ProCamps has provided us with daily live interviews for us to look forward to each weekday. 

Jared had a great response to Jordan's question and provided further proof that once you play for Alabama, you are family. The older players seem to stay connected to the younger players who are trying to pave their own way and they offer up their advice and tips so they can to see Alabama's success continue for years to come.

Danny: What was your favorite memory of your rookie season in the NFL?

Diontae Johnson: When I ran my first punt return back against the Cardinals.

Danny's Follow Up: That was awesome. He looks like he was as fast as Tyreek Hill. Diontae juked like 5 guys on that return.

Jordan: What other sports did you play growing up?

Diontae Johnson: Baseball and basketball.

Jordan's Follow Up: His speed would have made him great on the basketball court and running the bases in baseball. Diontae just looks like an athlete who is good at everything.

On Saturday, January 25th, 2019, we met Diontae Johnson at the Super Bowl Experience in Miami, FL at the Miami Beach Convention Center. The boys were excited to meet Diontae and Danny even pulled one of his trading cards from a pack while waiting in line to meet him and got it signed. Danny and Jordan greeted Diontae with smiles and handshakes and he was more than happy to share his sports he played growing up and talk about his punt return which was his highlight of his rookie season.

Diontae did go to collegiate rival University of Toledo Rockets to play his college football. Our family is an NIU Huskies family but we will always support our fellow players from the Mid American Conference. I did mention to Diontae that we were Huskies fans and he noted that his Rockets never were able to get a win vs. our Huskies during his time at Toledo. Hopefully we can keep it that way a little longer. In all, it was a tremendous opportunity for our team to meet Diontae Johnson who is a rising star in the NFL and in our opinion had a very underrated rookie season. Look for Diontae to be a top target for Big Ben next season and a breakout star in his sophomore season. #vincentsgo3on3
