The stuff I went through at Auburn? It didn't matter anymore. I just wanted to play football.

Here I am as a running back, making a pretty good living, actually doing pretty good.

It's a big change for a country boy like me, to be in the limelight in New York City. It was most definitely a tough adjustment.

Sometimes I talk, I say things, and I'm like, 'Maybe this won't happen, but I'm going to make myself believe it.'

Some coaches think they know everything, but they really don't. They tell you what they think is best, but it's really what's best for them.

I see more now. As far as concepts, I know where teammates are going, linemen are going. I can read defensive fronts. I can read the body language of linebackers. I study film to see who's a bull rusher and who's a finesse rusher. I think I've learned.

I have a soft side that I like people to see. I'm not mean. That's just football. That's just the way you've got to go. You can't go into a game that is that violent and be soft. You can't be that way.
