It's my job to get us in good plays, or more importantly, out of bad plays.

The Madden NFL franchise holds a special place in popular culture and the cover is a coveted position for players all over the league. I'm honored to be the first cover athlete chosen by Madden NFL fans and it's a great way to cap off an amazing year for the Saints and the city of New Orleans.

Each and every year I feel like I've gotten a little bit better and that's always been my goal, was just to get a little bit better

Under pressure, would I fold and disappear, or would I show everyone that when bad things happen, you fight?

It took me six months to redeem myself at least to have another chance to at least have her get to know me and let her know I was at least a decent guy and to give me a shot. And here we are, we've been married seven years

When you care about a guy beyond just the field, that's when the chemistry becomes really special.

We all understand what we signed up for, but then again, you don't want this to be a game that puts people in wheelchairs at age 40.
