During the introductory press conference for the Reece’s Senior Bowl, Director Jim Nagy took the podium and had Pitt QB Kenny Pickett and Alabama DL Phidarian Mathis available for questions. Since I wrote up Mathis’ pre-draft report for the site, I wanted to specifically ask him about his off the field work since he was named to the SEC Community Service Team in 2021.
JH: Your work off the field in terms of service work has been well documented over the last couple of years. Can you kind of delve into like specific projects that you have done in terms of service work and how that’s benefited your leadership off the field as well as how that plays together on the field with the leadership that we see it with you as a player.
