I was not a very good football player when I started out.
I don't judge my success in life as a football player.
I'm in love with college football. I have such a blast with it.
Every football player knows when his time is up.
I would play football, because I love it.
Because I love football and I love the footballers.
I went to college to play football, not to study it.
When I was 5 years old, hanging out with my friends who were all older than me, like 8 or 9, I was joking around like, 'Yeah, when I'm 20 that's a perfect age to go pro.' That's what I had in my head. Then I turn pro at 13. It's all been a mystery an...

I want to do what I like and that's play football.
We're sympathetic, but once you step on the field, football's football.
My father was an all-American football player.
I may be a successful football player, but I feel like such a failure.
I always told my dad I'd play professional football.
I was a very good baseball player and football player as a kid.
I had sacrificed my entire life to play football.
I love baseball. And American Football, too. But not rugby.
