best compete regardless
I'm just here to compete and do the best I can and let things play out and just be the best teammate I can be, regardless of the situation.
super trying
I don't remember anything from the Bills. It was rough there, but it is what it is. Now I'm here in the Super Bowl, just trying to enjoy that.
background dig dumb good hope house spotlight staying
It was a one-time thing, and it was dumb on my part. I hope (the scouts) dig into my background because they'll all see I come from a good family. I can't be out there doing what everyone else does. The spotlight is on me all the time. I'll be staying in the house for a while.
roommates
Just like old times. We were roommates for two years at Arkansas, too.
expected hard hear name trying until work
It's exciting. You know, it's all new and different for me. I'm working my way through it and trying to do what's expected of me. Like I said, you never really know where you're going or when you're going until you hear your name called. I just want to work hard and show what I can do and just see how it comes out.
I don't care if it's a preseason game or not. You want to win.
If they keep booing, and we keep winning, I don't care.
guys locker playing
I'm to a point now where you want to play for your fans and all that, but I'm playing for the guys in that huddle. I'm playing for the guys in that locker room.
buffalo chance familiar seattle situation though
The situation at Buffalo was a rough situation, and I appreciate the opportunity, but going back to Seattle was a better situation, even though I'm not the starter. I've got a chance to get back with some familiar faces, back at a place I'm familiar with.
