The greatest joy I get is setting up plays for somebody else. I take a lot of pride in helping other people make plays.

All of my Polynesian counterparts in the NFL with roots in American Samoa understand how the values embedded in our South Pacific culture - community, hard work, perseverance, respect - contribute directly to our success.

I have developed a Samoan mentality. You have to be a gentleman everywhere but on the field.

I know where I'm supposed to be at the time of the snap. Now, where the play dictates I'm going to go is a different story.

In football, you're taught to react by being aggressive, taught to react with violence. If you can't separate that on the field and off the field, you're going to be in a lot of trouble in your life.

I've never thought about the end of my career. I've had this growing motto in my life to live day to day - and when you live day to day, it's hard to talk years.

I've been surfing for a couple years, in the offseason in California and in Hawaii. I'm not very good, but it's just something that to be out there in the water, no cell phone, no music... very few sports are as pure as that.
