NORFOLK, Virginia — At the end of last football season, Florida A&M quarterback Damien Fleming reviewed film of every game that he played and decided he needed to make some changes.

He set out to fix the mistakes and work on the aspects of his game that looked shaky. It started with his movement in the pocket.
