fought furthest life
I know some 'thugs,' and they know I'm the furthest thing from a thug. I've fought that my whole life, just coming from where I'm coming from.
everybody gets
The playoffs, everybody gets a little frustrated. You lose, your season's over.
fit painted
To be painted a villain, you have to do something, I guess, evil or something heinous, and I don't know if I fit that description.
call family field football judge man thug worse
To those who would call me a thug or worse because I show passion on a football field - don't judge a person's character by what they do between the lines. Judge a man by what he does off the field, what he does for his community, what he does for his family.
people
People don't talk much about my punt returns.
history
No matter who you are, no matter what you do, you'd like to witness history.
diploma school
My school almost lost its accreditation. If that had happened, my diploma wouldn't have been worth anything.
primarily school stanford
Luckily, I was blessed to go to Stanford and a school that was primarily focused on academics, so it was a blessing.
I think my game measures up pretty well to myself.
shutting
I like every aspect of defense; I enjoy shutting down the offense.
passionate
Giving a true speech, a true, passionate speech, is old-school football.
A lot of coaches have come up to me and liked the way I played.
believe god
I don't believe in curses. I believe in God.
I talk a big game because I carry a big stick.
