I think as a veteran player, in general, you should feel that sense of responsibility to try to lead these guys to becoming good pros. You want the league to be in good hands, and you want these guys to become great NFL players and then pass it along to the next generation. You can only lead by example, and that's pretty much what I'm trying to do.

It means a lot. It means I'm accountable.

I'm always fighting to make the team anyway. I'm always preparing like I'm one of the bottom guys, trying to make the team.

Time heals all things.

When I look back, I'm glad I grew up in a small town. There, it's just you, your family and whatever you make of it.

I'm not perfect, but I know when I start to do something, I don't like to not finish.

The street is where we all learn. I played organized football growing up as well, but when that was over, I went right to the street. I remember twisting my ankles, breaking my thumb, I hurt everything when I was little playing street ball.
