I loved the game. We played because we loved it.

Nobody I ever broke bread with, and I see players all the time, talked about using their head running the football.

About the state of black America, I've been working on that for many, many years. And [Donald Trump] said certain things in his early days about wanting to do something about it. We have a lot of violence in our neighborhoods now. We need education. And we need jobs. Is what I'm trying to say.

I think the National Football League needs a new union. The heavyweights of this union are not heavyweights enough.

When you have a problem, rules don't solve your problem. It's caring and education.
