It's no secret that I am not afraid to shine bright and be festive, and I like to encourage that in others.

I don't want to be the center of attention, which is ironic. I hate having all eyes on me - unless it's for my job, and my job is playing football. I'm not that attention-hungry.

Growing up in Atlanta I always had a sense of what fashion was, a sense of style - my parents always talked about the importance of making a first impression and that's stayed with me.

I always keep my eye focused on what I would and want to wear.

I just like having fun with my style and keeping it new.

When people see you do alright, then you start winning their hearts. It's not going to come easy, though. It doesn't matter how many people you do right, you're still going to be hated by so many others. You can't live your life trying to make everybody happy.

I see myself not only as a football player, but an entertainer and icon.
