Ric, I feel like he hasn't changed up for no one. He's been the same since Day 1, since he was in the limelight as a pro wrestler. Even now, just his mentality and who he is: Find who you are and just be that. He's always being him. That's what I admire the most about Ric Flair.
I already know Cover 3, Cover 2, everything else. But it's a lot of times, defenses try to take you away and they do certain things that you wouldn't be ready for.
My thing is, going into a game, it's a team game. It's just not me.
I'm just going out there doing whatever it takes to win the game, to help my brothers out. It's not me against one other person.
I try to get better every day, and I think the hard work has helped turn me into a better person and not someone who would get a big head.
My mother has always supported me through life and football. She pushes me to get better and is my biggest fan on and off the field.
I was usually a water type of guy. But Vita Coco is good for hydration as well.
I don't fault anyone for stepping away from the game.
You just want to live a life after football. You want to be able to walk around.
If anybody is considering retirement. I'm all for it. You've got to live your life. I can't live your life for you.
I'm very tough and I have a high tolerance for pain.
I don't watch football like outside of football, really.
I'm a veteran guy. I know how to play the game. I know what it takes. Me missing a day of practice doesn't mean anything.
I've had a lot of success by myself, but it's not good when you can't go accomplish things as a team.
You can't let games define who you are and your character as a player.
You can't hang your head if you go out there and give it your all... If you are giving it your all, that's all you have.
Jerry Rice, he's one of the best to ever do it.
I just try to work on me and make the game fun.
You've got to go out there and play the game the way it's supposed to be played. Then you get people to like you and appreciate your work by just going out there and competing every down. Jerry Rice was looked at in that perspective. He went out there and was a hard-working guy. He was going to give it his all.
One play don't define a game.
