Goldmine

• Lenoir grew up in a hard-working family that always stressed education and hard work. His father works in construction as his mother works at home, constantly reminding Lenoir of the sacriices you make for success.
• Attributes his aspirations to his upbringing and community that pushed him in a competitive environment. "Growing up in South Los Angeles taught me a lot," he said. "It taught me to stay focused in order to be able to go where I want to go, and that's to the NFL. You have to stay in the classroom and do what you're told to do."
