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.

I'm just feeling like it was meant to be. What can I say? The birth of my son, and in the first year of his life, we won a Super Bowl Championship.

I'm a very modest person.

I know I can go out there and play much better than I did yesterday. But to come out with a win is key.

I don't know about voodoo, but I believe in destiny.

I'm not just trying to be a good game manager. I'm trying to be great.

I was honored to spend time with the President on an issue that is clearly important to him. I was also impressed by his wide receiver skills.
