“I'll be in a cadence, and I'll start to see one thing that a defense is starting to do, I'm like, 'I saw that two months ago on film.' And then that triggers whatever call you need to make.”

“I actually hated hunting the first time I went when I was a kid. My dad took us deer hunting. We sat there for 30 minutes, and I felt like I was losing my mind.

“I hate losing, and I'm gonna do whatever it takes to be the best at whatever it is I'm doing.”

“I enjoy creating relationships with my teammates, my friends, and I genuinely care about people.”
