## Resource

Deone Walker joins Eric Wood on Centered on Buffalo to talk about his impressive rookie season with the Bills, the jump from college football to the NFL, and what fans can expect from Buffalo’s new defensive scheme under Jim Leonard. The former Kentucky standout opens up about battling through back injuries, learning the mental side of pro football, and how the Bills’ veteran defensive line welcomed him from day one. The conversation also dives into Deone’s versatility across the defensive front, why Buffalo’s new defense will look very different than a traditional “3-4,” and what it’s like trying to use his rare size and length at the NFL level. Plus, Deone shares stories from the Kentucky Derby, meeting Rob Gronkowski, his favorite Buffalo wing spot, and the playoff interception he’ll never forget.
