You just can't let the outside world affect your game.You can't hold anything back. You can't play a different game.

I don’t have to play football for money.

I just need to be in a position where I can control the ball, make smart decisions, and do what I'm coached up to do.

I get very bored at practice because I have run curl-flat a million times, or slant-drag. There are so many parts of the game that have become so routine that you can let it bore you, and that's not good.

You can always get better.

So many people get caught up in being a pro athlete and think they are better. I don't feel like I've ever changed or acted any differently because of the situation I'm in or that status I have.

It feels good to give your fans something to feel good about.

I personally believe that professional athletes should give back to their communities in any way possible. We are in a position to make a difference.

I used to come to practice and go through the motions. I don't do that anymore. I look forward to practices. I even enjoy the windsprints.

The one place where I can relax is on the golf course with my teammates and buddies, assuming I'm hitting the golf ball well. If I'm not, well, that is another story.

There's a point in everyone's career where they're not going to be playing as well as they should be. You just have to keep you confidence and not hang your head and realize that you're going to figure it out and that you're going to get better and that you're going to learn. Learn from all your mistakes.
