What has this opportunity to play in the UFL meant to you?
The opportunity I have to play in the UFL is a blessing. To be able to still play the game I love while continuing to grow and build my platform and help the younger generation is what it’s all about. This is another blessing from God. 

What are your hopes for this season?
My hopes for this season is play team football and win the championship. I’m a natural born winner, if i say so myself. 

Why the Stallions?


The Stallions because of the culture. Obviously, they’ve won it the last three years but the way things are set and how everybody that’s evolved with the organization carry themselves. 

What has the off season looked like for you?
Something that a lot of people don’t know is my name “Shyheim” means “gift from God, GFG” and my childhood nickname is Christmas, which my grandma named me. 

Tell us something we may not know about you.
Three things i can’t live without is God, my kids/family, and videos games.
