That's the only reason I'm here. I don't need to play the game for any other reason than to win a championship.

The amount of work and the amount of both physical and emotional investment it takes to get to the top.

I had a great career and I enjoyed all of it, with the exception of losing.

I retire with a smile on my face, in good health, and ready to spend autumns at my kids' games instead of my own. I'm excited to start the next chapter of my life.

It is the best feeling in the world to have a close game come down to just a couple of plays and you are able to do it.

We're phenomenally blessed in the Walla Walla Valley. We have great, complex soil that's nutrient-rich but fairly porous.

Getting hurt and watching Tom Brady take over and beginning what's been just a spectacular run of his, and to come back and play in the AFC Championship Game against the Steelers in Pittsburgh, and help us win that game, is a memory that stands out very clearly.
