I grew up on games like Madden and NBA Jam, then moved on to NFL 2K on Dreamcast. The game I really loved was Virtua Tennis.

I was the originator of smack. Some guys rattle with smack; with other guys it rolls right off their shoulders like nothing.

I have the mentality that if you come in playing not to get hurt, that's when you're going to get hurt. So I play relentless.

The amount of players who get into trouble in the NFL is a very small minority, but they are the ones who make the headlines.

I wouldn't want to be a DB in the NFL. They've got no chance. There's no contact down the field, but fans want to see points.

The NFL acknowledges that repetitive trauma to the head in football... can cause a permanent, disabiling injury to the brain.

Depending on where you're at or the ownership you're working for, some of the college jobs may be better than some in the NFL.

I was always told that I was too small, too skinny, too slow, not tough enough, and I never ever believed what people told me.

It's hard coming in here talking a big game. It's hard, it's hard. It's a lamb coming to the wolves and throwing meat at them.

Some people say I'm the best back in the NFL. That's what drives you: You want everyone saying there's no doubt who's the best.

I didn't always walk that straight line. I'm not going to say that I'm an angel. But I made some right decisions along the way.

I do follow the NFL. It took me a while to get back into it, but I do follow it religiously now. Huge Packers and Steelers fan.

I played with the Pittsburgh Steelers this year, one of the most historic franchises in the NFL, and it is so cool and amazing.

I just didn't like the way we were, in my opinion, being unfairly attacked. I just decided to do what was right for our family.

I would like to thank the Jaguars organization for giving me the opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream of playing in the NFL.

I love the NFL. Everything that I really have is because of the NFL... but every idea that the NFL pitched is not a great idea.

As a kid, I always wanted to obviously win a Super Bowl. Now that I've got one, it's like, 'Now what?' Let's go get another one!

You have to feel you're the best at what you do. You don't have to come out and say it. But you have to know it within yourself.

It's different in the NFL because you're getting paid to get hit. In college, you're taking hits for someone else to make money.

Every game I've ever played, regardless if it was pre-season or Super Bowl, meant the same to me, and I laid it all on the line.

The highest standards of conduct must be met by everyone in the NFL because it is a privilege to represent the NFL, not a right.

In L.A., I think Sean McVay is one of the best play callers there is in the NFL, and I don't see him giving that up anytime soon.

A nation that spends billions to fix international problems will not have much left over for the victims of tornadoes in Oklahoma.

I'd like to say I'm one of the tight ends here and I hope this week helps me show that I do have the talent to be considered that.

From the perspective of everything I went through to have played in four NFL games, it was one of the best experiences of my life.

There's no question, I guarantee you, that you will see more NFL players getting into wrestling. They have the personality for it.

To be a leader, you have to make people want to follow you, and nobody wants to follow someone who doesn't know where he is going.

You hear about how many fourth quarter comebacks that a guy has and I think it means a guy screwed up in the first three quarters.

There's a difference between making incremental improvements and making sweeping changes that take you away from your core values.

I hired top-notch people, trusted them to do their jobs, and then came to grips with the fact that I wouldn't be coaching as much.

Coaches who want to coach in the NFL usually don't go to the high school level for 10 years. They know where they want to go early.

If anybody should be a judge of quarterbacks, I've played with the most quarterbacks in NFL history throughout my first four years.

My aunt has this video from when I was 6 years old, no teeth or nothing, and I told my mom and my aunt that I was going to the NFL.

The Redskins have been active champions in the fight against childhood obesity through our commitment with the NFL Play 60 program.

If you are going to be a starter in the NFL or a major-college program, you are going to have to beat out other great quarterbacks.

I couldn't believe it. That was the first time I had ever seen somebody celebrate for a whole 40-second clock. That was ridiculous.

I think he supersedes Peyton Manning but let's not throw Tom Brady in the category with Joe Montana, who was 4-for-4. He's royalty.

Just relief of trying to get there for eight years. It's finally here and I'm very excited. It's just great. It's been a long ride.

The secret to success is good leadership, and good leadership is all about making the lives of your team members or workers better.

The Steelers drafted guys who were bigger, stronger and faster than me, but they never found one who could take my job away from me.

No matter what anybody says, they cannot keep up with all 32 teams in the NFL, and certainly not 32 NFL teams and 100 college teams.

In order to be one of the best defensive linemen in the NFL - which I am - it's doing things that other people aren't willing to do.

I was just overcome with the idea that one day I wanted to be one of those voices at the Masters and work for CBS and cover the NFL.

I came from the NFL, so people didn't like that, or they just try to make assumptions, and I think when you assume, you look stupid.

I was the No. 1 player coming into college and I want to be the No. 1 player heading into the NFL. That's definitely one of my goals.
