Whenever I do the sign of the cross, it always brings comfort in situations when you are faced with adversity and stress.

I think it's important to cross train. Surfing is a good cross training sport for your shoulders. I don't think I know of any other football player who does it, who can go and paddle out past the sets.

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

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 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.

It's important for me to have strong hair in case someone pulls it and tries to rip it all out.

There's so much that I like about Pittsburgh, actually. The cultural district and museums are wonderful, and I encourage everyone to check them out. And the food is excellent, too!
