Given a full summer to practice basketball, and especially my jump shot, I know that I could play in the NBA and do well.

I'm looking forward to making a Super Bowl run in Atlanta every year.

Leadership doesn't come from age.

I don't care if it's politics, religion or football. I believe you have to keep opening your mind. And shut your mouth sometimes!

I was awful at football when I was a little kid. I didn't have the aggressiveness. I was just a nice kid. I didn't want to hurt anyone.

I love football. The games are a pure rush. By the time I'm done playing, I want to be among the best tight ends ever to play the game.

Tight end is one of the hardest positions to play in football. It's right up there with quarterback and cornerback. You have to have the skills of a wide receiver and the strength of an offensive lineman, and it's not easy to balance those two.
