“I just love to see young guys being successful and just coming from nothing and being able to accomplish their dreams, whether it's my guys I know or if it's guys on Oklahoma. Whoever it is, just anybody that makes their dream come true.”

“As a player you find yourself doing that. It's just growing up from high school to college. You're like 'Oh, I had 800 yards my freshman year, I should have 1,200 yards.' So, you can never get stuck in the past and just worry about the future.”

“Some years are going to be better than others. Some years are not. That's just a part of the game. You've got to learn how to deal with stuff, and then just keep your head up and keep fighting.”

“It's easy to say when you lose the game that you need the ball more, but when you're winning and you don't get the ball it's no problems. So you've got to be consistent.”

“I never in a million years thought I'd be helping someone move into a home.”

“You want to be consistent. That's how players become great in this league, is doing it on a consistent basis.”

“When it's time to work, it's time to work. When it's time to sit back and relax, I need to do my part as well, making sure I'm ready, getting mentally prepared and just staying focused helping other guys out.”

“I'm too big to be dancing.”

“You just play for the love of the game and you want to be successful at it.”

“I felt like I've prepared myself every week and tried to play as hard as possible.”

“I know players on every team and we talk all the time. They tell me during the game, 'We're not going to give you nothing. So, you're going to have to earn it.' You hear it throughout the week, press conferences, whatever it is.”

“You've got to leave your mark while you can and definitely try to be the best you can.”

“It's just a cool thing to do, to give the kids a good opportunity to come out and meet a bunch of ball players.”

“I just try to go out there and try to have the best game of my career every week.”

“It doesn't matter if you're an All-Pro or a Pro Bowler the year before or you made it the year of. Nobody cares about what you're doing in this league, you've got to prove yourself each week, you've got to prove yourself each year.”

“Considering football's level of brute, immanent physicality, high turnover as well as the short life cycle of its participants, it would seem to me that NFL players are in the most need of fully guaranteed contracts.”

“To play in the Super Bowl feels like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But also to come up short is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

“Working out is the only time I torture myself.”
