I try to be open with everybody, try to make everybody feel welcome and make them feel like, hey, I'm an easy person to talk to, get along with.
The first two months were painful and they really tested my manhood because there were times I didn’t want to get up because I was in pain. That willpower has to kick in.
I want to help my team get to the playoffs, win, and run wild.
I run angry. Football allows me to take out some of my pain on the field.
I try to eat a lot of baked foods, fish, chicken, potatoes, stuff like that. Grab me a Muscle Milk. That helps.
I'm really not vocal and expressive, but I'm starting to get more comfortable to open up.
I like to bless people and do things without the world knowing about it, because I'm not in it for the glory. I do it because it comes from my heart. As long as I keep doing that, I'm satisfied.
I love my son. I love my kids, my family, Like I said after I took the misdemeanor plea, I take full responsibility for my actions. .
Thankfully, I'm lucky enough to be able to eat ice cream. I've got to have my cookies and cream! But I work out a lot, so I burn a lot of calories.
It's modern-day slavery.
Seafood was always my favorite food. I mean, fried lobster? Come on. Once I found out shrimp, scallops and lobster were my allergic triggers, I had to change my diet.
I want to win four or five championship rings. That's how I dream. I dream big.
I take football as an avenue to different opportunities. Football is not using me; I'm using football.
I'm looking forward to getting back on the field, it's what I love to do.
