WR Albert Wilson

(What’s it like to see your old high school here?) – “It’s awesome, man. I didn’t have the opportunity when I was in high school to come out here and just see how professional athletes prepare for the game, and with the (first) game being so far away and seeing how concentrated they are. I feel like it’s a great job that they get the high schools out here and just get the opportunity to see it.”

(Does it take you back a little bit to your time at Port St. Lucie High School and thinking of your dreams of being in the NFL one day?) – “Yes, definitely. There are still coaches there that were there when I was there, so to see them out here and see (those coaches) still leading them in the right direction, it’s definitely a good feeling.”

(What do you hope they learn out here or see from you out here?) – “Just how to prepare. Just that their dream is possible; coming from the same high school that I did to come here and play professional football. I hope it gives them a little pep in their step of what they want to accomplish.”

(What’s your best memory of the time you spent at Port St. Lucie High School?) – “I had a lot of good memories, man. Growing up and playing football with your high school friends and childhood friends is great. Just scoring a lot of touchdowns. It was all good going back to Port St. Lucie High School.”

(If you could go back and tell the 14-year-old WR Albert Wilson something, what would you tell him?) – “I feel like at 14, I was pretty straightforward and had my mind made up of playing football. Just don’t doubt yourself. There are a lot of times I doubted myself and (wondered) if this was for me or not. I stayed with it and I found out it was for me. (If I were to) go back then, (I’d) just tell myself don’t doubt myself.”

(You’ve been used in a lot of different spots out here. How much do you enjoy moving from one spot to another?) – “It’s great, just being able to get out there, lined up and grind with my brothers. It’s great.”

(Does it matter where you line up?) – “No, it doesn’t. Whatever they need me to do, I’m down for it. (Head) Coach (Adam) Gase does a great job of getting guys lined up everywhere. He’s a great guy. I fully trust him and have faith in him so I pretty much just listen and get lined up where he needs me to be.”
