I realize I'm very fortunate to hopefully make a lot of money playing football. I don't know if I want to abuse that privilege and make myself a larger figure than I am.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I want to be a great player. I don't want to play for the money. I don't want to play for fame. I'd just as soon no one knew who I was. I want to play football because it's football.
I just want to continue to play football and be myself.
I think if you want to become a great football player, professional, you must give all the time one hundred percent, you must work hard - to be lucky is a good thing - but if you work hard and you give everything you will have great success.
I take football as an avenue to different opportunities. Football is not using me; I'm using football.
The trouble is that right now I want to put as much work into football as I can. It's very important for me to get off to a good start. By the same token, I feel a responsibility to handle the media and those sort of things.
I just want to continue to play great football - that's all that matters. I don't really care about the accolades or any of that.
If I got a football scholarship, I was going to be a football player.
Just because I'm undersized and under-this and under-that, I've still been a good football player since I was little.
Playing professional football is something I'll never be able to do.
I don't judge my self-worth as a football player. Football is something I love. It's a fun career deal, but it's not what I want to do with my life, because I see football as a game.
