Hard work pays off for Willis

Like a lot of his peers, Jordan Willis spends hours each day in front of a screen.

But he isn’t bingeing on Netflix.

The Kansas State defensive end is studying film to figure out opponents’ tendencies as well as tendencies of NFL players he looks up to. He said he has seen every defensive end in college and the NFL at some point.

“I want to be the most prepared that I can be,” Willis said. “Daily, I’ll probably watch, on average, four to five hours of film by myself … that’s just something that I do because I know everything I can about my opponent.
