Life is funny and weird.

I like chillin' by the pool.

I always focus on the negatives.

I've always wanted a perfect life.

I know what it's like to be humiliated.

Me and Sean Payton have a great relationship.

I'd rather be a shooting star than a fading star.

You gotta have faith. You gotta keep your head up.

I don't want anyone to believe in me more than me.

But, yeah, I definitely want to get a Cardinals tattoo.

The people of Arizona, they've been very warm and welcoming.

I'm not one of those guys who gets stronger in the weight room.

What you have to have is motivation and you have to have drive.

I celebrate my teammates' plays more than I celebrate my plays.

Everybody can't be Lil Wayne. Some of us have to pick up a book.

I was a rock star. I was the president of Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

I think Tom Brady is one of the greatest competitors of all time.

Ultimately you play the game to be the champion, to be remembered.

I've always been a player that could do a lot of different things.

I grew up listening to the Hot Boys, with Lil Wayne and all those guys.

Any team that's consistent over time, you have to respect what they have.

I want to be a beacon to kids like me, the ones who grow up without hope.

Any time I'm healthy I feel like I'm the best defensive player in the NFL.

I like movies, action movies. I definitely would be an actor in Hollywood.

I don't think I can go back to New Orleans. I don't think that's possible.

I take great pride in being who I am. Whether I'm broken or not, I am who I am.

I want to be present for my kids, and my biological father wasn't present for me.

I want to be the same guy I am in the weight room that I am on the football field.

When you surround yourself with the wrong people it's going to backfire every time.

I take the good; I take the bad. I don't outweigh them. I just try to balance it all.

The violence in New Orleans is erupting and it's continuing to grow at an alarming rate.

I didn't really like playing free safety. I didn't like being in the middle of the field.

I just want to be remembered as an inspiration. I don't want to be remembered as anything else.

I'm always moving around. It's hard for offenses to get a grip on what I'm doing or where I'm at.

Walking alone, just thinking - that's treatment, man. That's the most comforting rehab I've known.

It's senseless. I've lost several uncles, I've lost my best friend to gun violence in New Orleans.

I'm surrounding myself with people who want to do what I want to do, which is be a football player.

It's about gaining that confidence back in myself. Believing in myself more than others may believe.

At LSU, I was a true leader. I know I made some mistakes, but I think I was a leader for my teammates.

My adopted parents were able to pay for me to go to a private school. So I had it better than most people.

LSU has a strong drug testing program and LSU went to great lengths to help me in my treatment and recovery.

I want to be a great teammate, and I want to be the same leader on the field that I know I can be off the field.

I guess I did go through my phase where I wanted to be a rapper. I made music, but I was never really good at it.

Most people try to isolate themselves and pretend like things are all good when a lot of times, that's not how it is.

Going to school is cool, being accountable is cool, being responsible is cool. Those things are the cool things to do.

I've lived my whole life trying to prove that I'm worthy of being a part of something because I never really felt that.

But, most of the time it takes people to hit rock bottom for them to start believing in themselves, and start seeking help.

I want to… help the young guys, help my teammates, help everybody be confident and make everybody feel like they're special.

I think a lot of people would probably assume that I had a bad relationship with LSU, and I don't think that was ever the case.

I don't have any bad vibes with LSU. I learned so much there. I experienced so much there. I had so much fun. I met great people.
