Every experience, good or bad, you have to learn from.

No one really sees pro athletes behind the scenes. They don't know how hard they work. They don't see how you work on the basics. They couldn't possibly know. You wouldn't think that someone who hits like Alex Rodriguez needs to use a tee every day. But that's how he stayed on top of it.

I feel like, even if something goes wrong, I have confidence in myself and my team that we'll fix it.

I just try to learn from every mistake that I make so that I never make them again.

You can't have a good Thanksgiving meal without a little bit of ketchup on the side.

You dream of your first NFL start when you're a little kid, playing football in the backyard, but until you get there, you never know what to expect.

I was that little kid: I was the one that was looking up to athletes and getting to see them and getting to be a part of it, and I remember those experiences.

Any dog can be aggressive; it's basically the way they're raised.

I try to just focus in on being in the same routine every single day.

It's a challenge for all quarterbacks, though: You want to make the big play; you want to throw a touchdown every single play. But at the same time, you have to know that it's a process.

You want to be drafted high, but to be drafted high into an organization like the Kansas City Chiefs, it's like a dream to me.

I've been a fan of ketchup for as long as I can remember, and the thick, rich flavor of Hunt's ketchup delivers every time.

I was a good student and stuff like that.

You see Tom Brady, you see Alex Smith, and you see all those guys in the pocket and how quick they are with their footwork and how they get the ball out fast. I have to get like that.

I like being... in Kansas City. People are extremely nice, extremely passionate about the Chiefs.

I didn't do any football stuff when I was a kid... Mostly baseball and basketball the whole time. That's all I did. I played football starting in seventh grade. As I got older, I started playing a little bit more. Then in high school, I really fell in love with it.

It's not like I mean to throw no-look passes. I think it kind of happens out of instinct. As I do it, I'm like, 'Dang, I didn't even mean to do that.'

Playing the scout-team quarterback in practice really helped develop my game.

I'm definitely not for any haunted houses. They're all scary to me.

It's pretty cool just to see the support we have. It's unmatched, Kansas City and the Chiefs Kingdom, the support they have for us. For me to just kind of be in the community and see those people is always a good thing.
