Muhammad is an HBCU All-America First-Team and SWAC All-Conference First-Team player as he helped bring the Braves much success for two years in a row. He racked up 87 tackles, three sacks, and two interceptions in  2019.

All three players worked very hard for ASU over the years as they were coached by Fred McNair.

By performing well at the combine next month, the three Braves will have a great chance of being noticed by NFL teams and it will further their chances of playing on the next level.
