It's going to be a weird feeling, to be honest. I built a lot of great relationships during my nine years with the organization.

genuine model people role
(Steelers owner) Mr. (Dan) Rooney is one of the kindest, most genuine people I've ever met, ... He's so unassuming. He's a role model for a lot of people.
colorado extremely great impressive mature outside players point remember rookie state strength underrated
I would say he's one of the more underrated outside linebackers in a long time. He's extremely quick, and he has great instincts. He's really mature and he has great strength at the point of attack. I can remember him as a rookie out of Colorado State and how impressive he was then. I just really think he's one of the underrated players in this league.
based buy catching clearing embrace fair feels game great heath judgment kid looked outside passes people plays role six solely statistics sure tight unselfish wants welcome whether wins year
You have to embrace and welcome the role that you're given. A lot of people on the outside always said to me, 'You need to have statistics to say you're a great player.' I didn't buy into that. The only statistics I looked at were wins and losses. Whether I was catching two passes in a game or clearing the way for Jerome, I just wanted to win. There was a year when I had 18 receptions and six went for touchdowns (in '97). I made plays when I had to. I just don't think you can make a fair judgment on a tight end based solely on numbers. I'm sure Heath feels the same way about this, because from what I've heard, he's an unselfish kid who wants to be a winner.
