As long as I can run fast, track will always be an option. But right now I'm focused on football because the NFL is knocking on my door and I'm not going to slam it in its face.

I don't play too much into the color game, because I don't want to be the best African American quarterback, I want to be the best quarterback.

I try to associate myself as just being myself - and being a person, an American citizen, going out there every day and just trying to be successful.

I think I'm starting to figure out when I need to get rid of it and when I don't need to.

I am an African-American in America. That will never change. But I don't have to be defined by that.

You know, I started this process of being a football player and I'm going to make it to the NFL very soon and I plan on finishing that. And by 'finishing that,' I mean that I'm going to go out and be the best that I can be and put everything forth to make that happen.

I like to think I'm pretty smart with what I was able to do academically, but whenever I get on the field I turn into the Incredible Hulk and I am unstoppable.
