Interview: DL Nesta Jade Silvera Models Game After Casey Hampton, Said It ‘Would Be Real Dope’ To Become A Steeler

Last week Wednesday, I had the opportunity to interview Arizona State DL Nesta Jade Silvera during the media breakfast in Mobile, Alabama at the Senior Bowl. Silvera had been a player that represented himself well during the practice but stood out with his outgoing personality. He chucked a water bottle in the air when the defense won a team competition, making the offense do pushups and was part of a crowd of defenders that swarmed the end zone after Stanford CB Kyu Blu Kelly picked off a pass and took it to the house.

I asked Silvera about those instances in practice and then proceeded to ask him how he felt the 1-on-1 sessions went after Wednesday’s practice in comparison to Tuesday’s practice, the first time Silvera put on the pads in over a month since his season ended.
