Landon Collins’ Key to Success

When you talk to Landon Collins, it’s clear why he’s one of the best safeties in the NFL. He had a breakout season last year with 125 tackles, four sacks, 13 pass deflections, five interceptions and a touchdown in 16 starts, and he’s on track for another incredible year. He’s only 23 years old and what Landon has already accomplished is extraordinary.

Landon’s biggest key to success: practice. The University of Alabama alum developed a strong work ethic playing under Head Football Coach Nick Saban and today he treats every practice with the same intensity as a real game.

We all want to be great at what we do, but not all of us are willing to practice our craft over and over and over again. In Landon’s case, it’s the commitment to preparation and practice that makes the difference between ordinary and extraordinary.
