Malik Simmons Models Swagger After Deion Sanders

Posted Jul 30, 2014
UNC cornerback Malik Simmons says confidence is crucial for the cornerback position in particular. "It's usually a lot of one-on-one," said Simmons. "So if you feel like the man in front of you is better than you, then usually he'll beat you." Simmons had 47 tackles in 13 games at UNC last season. He says he models his game, and his swagger after Deion Sanders. (WINK News)
