Quarterbacks can still have good bodies. I'm always conscious of the stereotype. I want to change what people think. There's a lot more to it than what you see on the field.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I don't want people to think you have to look a certain way or be a certain mold to be able to be a quarterback.
If you're the quarterback and want to be the best on the field, you've got to act like it.
I think to be a great quarterback, you have to have a great leadership, great attention to detail, and a relentless competitive nature. And that's what I try to bring to the table, and I have a long way to go. I'm still learning, and I'm still on a constant quest for knowledge.
I feel like too many guys get wrapped up in this image that a quarterback is supposed to have, and I've never bought into that.
As a quarterback, obviously, you're going to be put in the forefront whether you like it or not, and if you're not then you're not doing your job.
Quarterbacks like guys who try to do everything they can for them and put it on the line for them. So that's what I try to do.
In football, it's the ultimate team sport. You have to have good people around you as a quarterback for things to happen.
It's all about becoming a more well-rounded player and not a one-dimensional player. You might hear someone say, 'Hilton Head sets up well for them.' I don't want that stereotype.
That's what I love the most about being a quarterback. Everybody looks to you to make a play. They look to you to say something that's going to spark the team. I take full pride in that every single day.
If you can have a really good coaching staff, and you can have a really good young quarterback and do a really good job in player personnel and string together multiple successful drafts, your window is not small in the NFL because of the quarterback.
