Luke Nicholson: Who is your biggest role model? Why?


Nick Larkin: A Jewish carpenter who lived 2000 years ago. He's the answer.


Luke Nicholson: What is your greatest football moment to date?


Nick Larkin: Beating No. 8 Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, when we were No. 2. I had a pair of sacks in the game. That game showed the character of our team.

Luke Nicholson: During your career at Boston College, what did your typical day during football season consist of?


Nick Larkin: Breakfast followed by lifting (Tuesdays and Thursdays). After the lift I would go to my classes and then have lunch before practice. Following practice we would have training table. After this I would typically do some homework and then hang out before bed.


Luke Nicholson: What sports did you participate in during high school and how have they helped you to become a better player on the football field?


Nick Larkin: I played basketball during my freshmen and junior year of high school. I wish I would have played all four years though because it was a lot of fun and I did gain valuable speed which helped out in football.


Luke Nicholson: Who is the best player you have faced during your career?


Nick Larkin: Hard to narrow it down to one, so I'll say Gosder Cherilus and Matt Ryan every day in practice.

Nick Larkin: Teleportation. I like to travel.


Luke Nicholson: What one thing do you have to work on the most to excel at the NFL level?

Luke Nicholson: If someone decided to make a movie about your life, what actor would play you and what would the movie be titled?

Nick Larkin: Working speed, agility, strength, and conditioning.


Luke Nicholson: Is there a specific team you hope to play for?


Nick Larkin: No.


Luke Nicholson: Are you a cat or a dog? Why?


Nick Larkin: You might think a dog. But in a fight, a cat beats a dog and they are faster and more agile. I'm a cat.

Luke Nicholson: Outside of football, what are some of your hobbies?


Nick Larkin: I like to travel. I'm also big on computer games and movies.


Luke Nicholson: Why should a NFL team select you over other defensive ends in this draft?

Nick Larkin: I'd like to be a child psychologist.

Luke Nicholson: What is something unique about you that most people don’t know?


Nick Larkin: Double jointed in several fingers.
