ball eat egos everybody job nice spreading win
Joey's doing a nice job spreading the ball around. It's up to him how it goes. We don't have any egos at receiver. You can't have egos and win games. With all of us, everybody can't eat every game.
arms balls best brings brought catch competition deep gonna knows love mike open people problem receiver roy talking
Everybody's talking about there's going to be a problem with egos, but I brought Mike in with open arms and showed him as much love as any receiver here. Deep down inside, Roy knows what's up, and Mike knows what's up. I want to catch 10 balls a game, but if I do I do, if I don't I don't. I ain't gonna trip. Competition brings the best out of you. Some people get the best brought out of them on Sundays. It's every day out here.

You have to look at the big picture,

Today wouldn't be a good day for me to talk. I don't want to get into all that.
days detroit last
If this is my last days in Detroit or not, I don't know. That's really out of my hands, out of my control.
fell mean
I didn't mean to stab him (Maes). He fell into it.
guy maybe route
Maybe I ain't the guy for them. Maybe they're going a different route with it.
business count good knock took
When they took Roy, they told me about him, ... When they took Mike, they (didn't) say (anything) to me. I didn't know what to think. I put it like this: 'It's like 50-50 with me. They don't know if they can count on me or not.' So it was a good business move. You can't knock the hustle.
coach genuine type
Reggie is the type of coach you know will always be in your life. He is a genuine person who is always there for you through any situation.
accept excuses full mainly responsibility
I will make no excuses for what I did, and I accept full responsibility for my actions. I let down a lot of people, mainly myself.
hard hungry positive special stayed time worked
My time is now. I've stayed positive and hungry and worked hard. Having not done it yet is going to make it more special when I do.
If it was on my mind, I wouldn't be able to perform,
determination far next time
I was just determined, I don't know when the next time is I'll get in. As far as me starting, it won't happen.
