I've been blessed to have an amazing mom and two amazing sisters - so they set a very high standard.
I pray to start my day and finish it in prayer.
I'll give my heart and soul whenever I step on that field and even when I'm on the sidelines. And at the end of the day, that's really all you can ask of someone.
How many people are not as good as they could be at their job because they don't love it? They're not passionate about it. If you don't like something, why are you doing it?
I didn't want to be like everyone else. I wanted to be better. If I did what everybody else did, then why would you look up to me? Why would I set an example?
When you try to be a role model, not everybody can relate to some of your highs - awards, championships. But everybody can relate to the lows. Everybody's gotten fired from a job or gotten cut. People learn more about you in those lows than they do in the highs.
I'm going to mess up. But I'm going to get back, you know, and get after it and try to do better the next day.
And that's the great thing about living the Christian life and trying to live by faith, is you're trying to get better every day. You're trying to improve.
Before a game, you know, I can take off my helmet, run over there and spend a few moments with someone who is dealing with so much more than I've ever had to deal with and to love on them and care about them and in front of thousands and thousands of people, you know, let them know that they're more important than all of this.
Something I always try to practice is be anxious for nothing, but let your request be known to God.
They needed more of a commitment from me towards them. It was a mutual thing. We'll still talk to their coaches because they are friends.
It happens pretty much a lot of the time. They just say thanks for coming.
There aren't many guys like him. He's going to be a good receiver for us. He really makes the quarterback look a lot better than he is. He made me look better on a lot of plays.
I know how important it is. I've been working really hard, trying to get better every day. I'm trying to learn as much as possible.
