Coming out of high school, Ricky Town was the dude. He was going to SC; I was going to UCLA. He was No. 1 in the country; I was No. 2.

All my teammates throughout my entire career in football had my back. I loved them; they loved me.

Over the course of my career, I'm trying to win Super Bowls... I am an NFL football player now, and I'm going to try the best that I can to be the best one.

Your primary job is to be a football player, and you've got to accomplish that task before you go out and do anything else, really.

I didn't really start building my own stuff until I was 24, 25 or so, and even then, I ran into a lot of resistance from, like, older folks, like my bosses at other companies or people in the industry that were like, 'Oh that's an interesting idea, but it will never work.' And, I don't know, I kind of believed everything that they told me.

I'm not sure if career can be planned.

As a full-time athlete, you put your body through a lot. A foam roller works like a self-massage to roll out the knots in your quads, your hamstrings, and your back so that you feel looser and more prepared.

I love having the opportunity to explore a part for a great length of time, really get deeper and deeper into it, because you only have a chance to do that once or twice in a career.
