Jadeveon Clowney is sick of all the talk about his work ethic, and he wants his future NFL teammates to know that they’re going to see just how hard he works.

“I think I work just as hard as anybody,” Clowney told the Associated Press. “If you pick me and pair me with guys, I’m going to try and outwork them also.”

Clowney would like to stop discussing his work ethic, but he knows that the questions about it won’t go away any time soon.

“I’ve been tired of it, but you have to keep doing it,” he said.

The good news for Clowney is that the pre-draft hype is almost over. In 11 days he’ll be in the NFL, and he’ll have the opportunity to prove those who doubt him wrong.
