It's an awesome responsibility, not only to maintain the level of success the NFL has, but to build on that.

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

I don't expect to try to get people to like everything I do. I want them to respect what I do.

No one is above the game or the rules that govern it. Respect for the game and the people who participate in it will not be compromised.

I learned in high school that I was going to have to outwork people. I remember running around the track, training for football, and a faster guy ran past me. I just figured, I can outlast him. If I work harder than him, I'll beat him. And to this day I overprepare.

I've spent my life following my passion.

I am awake a lot of nights.
