You have to be able to step up when your name is called.

I try to live my life like my father lives his. He always takes care of everyone else first. He won't even start eating until he's sure everyone else in the family has started eating. Another thing: My dad never judges me by whether I win or lose.

I think I can get five, six, seven more years out of this arm and these legs.

I have a great family. I can call them and they don't want to talk just football They want to find out how my day went outside of football.

When there are doubters, it always fuels the fire a little bit. When people say you can't do something, if you are a competitor, that drives you.

Leadership is something you earn, something you're chosen for. You can't come in yelling, 'I'm your leader!' If it happens, it's because the other guys respect you.

Basketball was always my first love, but once I had a good year as a senior, I figured the next step was to play college football.
