Everybody who knows me knows how I get down.

Everybody who knows me knows how I get down.

I'm willing to deal with the consequences and accept responsibility for my actions.

Sports kept me off the streets. It kept me from getting into what was going on, the bad stuff.

The good thing is I don't put the ball in my right hand and I'm predominantly left-handed when I'm running the ball. I just have to take care of the football and even if I have two hands that are 100 percent, I still can't turn the ball over. It's just something I have to mentally prepare for, and I think I'm strong enough to do that.

What I did, you know, being away from my family, letting so many people down. I let myself down, not being out on the football field, being in a prison bed, in a prison bunk, writing letters home, you know. That wasn't my life.

Once I decided football was the way for me, there was no looking back. Nothing was going to distract me.
