When I first came into the NFL, I was just trying to be super, super ready to learn the plays and all that. Now, I've found more balance.

Russell WilsonI don't think I've arrived. I think I'm continuing to get there, getting closer and closer to where I want to go. But I'm not there yet.
Russell WilsonYou know, I want to be the uncommon one. I think it's pretty cool that I'm only 5'11, you know, and playing in the National Football League.
Russell WilsonI think the part that people get confused is that when you come in National Football League at a young age, they tell you to try to look for other things to do, and be ready for everything else in your life just in case. But as soon as you have a bunch of success, they think that's the only thing you can do, that you can only be a football player. I think God has gifted me with so many other things other than just football, and that's what I want to bring to the world.
