It's always unfortunate when something gets misreported and the facts are not clear.

My goal was to prove to my family I wasn't a dummy.

It's not just the NFL. Every other league has a draft. It has been fundamental to the success of professional sports.

My job is to protect the integrity of the NFL and to make sure the game is as safe as possible.

I don't get myself caught up in the rhetoric of any personal comments that are made.

You have to continue to learn. That's how you develop. So the people who show that curiosity, that ambition, that willingness to do what it takes to improve and to get better, they're the people who are going to be successful in the long term.

It is a privilege for me to serve the NFL. It is the only place I have ever wanted to work.
