Playing the running back position, your legs, that's your living, that's how you make your living. You have to have great thighs, knees, everything.

In the NFL, you have a short shelf life. As a running back, if you're the first pick, and you're NFL life expectancy is only 3.5-6 years, your first big contract might not come until three years in - well, you might never get there. They need to get those signing bonuses up front because nothing is guaranteed.

It doesn't matter if you want to be in the NFL or do something else. If you want something great, you won't get it sitting around.

I don't give players a chance to hit me.

Most of the hits I take come on top of the shoulder pads.

When I loved it, I loved it. It was nothing better.
