Slam was born in New York to a father named Lawson who was a former professional cornerback and mother named Martha who was a scientist. Since he was young, Lawson wanted Slam to become a professional football player so he enrolled Slam in youth football early and put him through tough training programs. Lawson wasn't sure what position to focus Slam in so he had him play a whole bunch of positions to see which he was successful in. As Slam got older, he grew very fast compared to his peers. He eventually ended up being taller and bigger than his dad as a teenager. Due to his quick growth spurt, he dominated youth football compared to his peers. His father decided that his size would be best used in the trenches as a defensive lineman, and so began the journey. In high school, Slam dominated the competition as he was much more developed than anyone else. He was a highly rated recruit and had a wealth of top football programs to play for. He ended up committing to Cal in order to appease his mom's demands of attending an academic focused college while also being able to play college football. | Slam was born in New York to a father named Lawson who was a former professional cornerback and mother named Martha who was a scientist.

Contents
Early years
Slam was born in New York to a father named Lawson who was a former professional cornerback and mother named Martha who was a scientist. Since he was young, Lawson wanted Slam to become a professional football player so he enrolled Slam in youth football early and put him through tough training programs. Lawson wasn't sure what position to focus Slam in so he had him play a whole bunch of positions to see which he was successful in. As Slam got older, he grew very fast compared to his peers. He eventually ended up being taller and bigger than his dad as a teenager. Due to his quick growth spurt, he dominated youth football compared to his peers. His father decided that his size would be best used in the trenches as a defensive lineman, and so began the journey. In high school, Slam dominated the competition as he was much more developed than anyone else. He was a highly rated recruit and had a wealth of top football programs to play for. He ended up committing to Cal in order to appease his mom's demands of attending an academic focused college while also being able to play college football.
College career
As a true freshman, Slam was the best player in Cal's recruiting class and was highly touted going into the year. After a strong pre-season, Slam was named a starter on the defensive line with a lot of experts predicting him to be the a Freshman All-American. However, Slam quickly realized that college was nothing like high school and he struggled during his freshman year. In order to keep him fresh, he was rotated with a lot during the year but even when he did play, he didn't make much of an impact. He registered 15 tackles and 1 sack his freshman year, failling to live up to expectations. Sophomore year, he once again struggled despite being named a starter again. He had minor injuries throughout the year missing 3 games and ending the season with 23 tackles and 3 sacks. By the end of his sophomore year, Slam felt lost as many people started to write him off as a bust. To try to change his approach, he spent that offseason doing gymnastics and meditation instead of typical training. He wanted to change the way his body operated by focusing on flexibility and improving the mental aspect to his game. This approach ended up working as he broke out his junior year ending the year with 41 tackles and 10 sacks. He followed this same approach his senior year while adding muscle in an effort to beef himself up. This allowed him to return back to his dominant self and he registered 54 tackles and 14 sacks.

S48 - BBB Rookie Season
After being drafted in the 2nd round to the Bondi Beach Buccaneers, Slam was moved to outside linebacker to take advantage of his athletic prowess.

He went on to put up a fantastic rookie season putting the league on notice of his talents. He led his team in tackles, TFLs, and sacks as a top defensive player on BBB, winning multiple PoTG awards. His sideline to sideline ability allowed him to make impact plays all over the field evidenced in the Week 2 game against the Portland Pythons. Slam had 12 tackles and 1 sack keeping the Python's offense in check. His pass rushing skills from college translated over well as he was a threat off the edge. Although BBB just missed out on the playoffs by 1 game, Slam's performance looks promising as the future of the BBB defense going into next season.
