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

I take pride in my life-my wife, my family. I try my best not to have football define the person that I am.

I've never really been aware of what is said about me, whether it's positive or negative. I ignore it. I've always had the mind-set: 'No one can challenge me better than myself.'

Injury in general teaches you to appreciate every moment. I've had my share of injuries throughout my career. It's humbling. It gives you perspective. No matter how many times I've been hurt, I've learned from that injury and come back even more humble.

I don't feel that I need a tattoo to represent myself as a Samoan or a Christian.

When I'm done playing football, I just might be the couch potato dad.

I've always been fascinated by the military, the discipline they have and the sacrifices they make to defend the country. It's something I've always been interested in.
