I've always been a very self-aware person.

Anybody who's away from what's normal is just kind of pushed aside as, 'Oh, he's crazy.' But in reality, this world is crazy. It's just chaos everywhere. It's really hard to be part of this world, because it's very possessed. And very egocentric.

The greatest thing for me football-wise is that it's a test of will.

My hair has become part of my identity; it's almost an appendage to me.

I knew that I had it tough compared to children around me. But I felt like I needed it. I think I had the wisdom as a child to know that it would help me later on.

I am a National Football League player of American Samoan heritage. Because of my status as a professional athlete, I have been blessed to play a role in educating players and fans about the culture and history of America's southernmost territory.

Playing professional sports, it's important to eat healthy and take care of your body. In the offseason, rest is really important to me.
