Everyone knows the kid's special. Scratch that. He's not a kid after the way he played tonight. He's a man. The stats don't show what he did for this football team. |
I can only control what I can control. I'm happy to see those guys go out there and do what they do. When my opportunity comes, I'm going to try to take full advantage of it. |
I wasn't myself. I know I wasn't myself. The coaches know I wasn't myself. Everybody knew that I wasn't myself. It was the smart thing to do (to sit out a game). |
It hurts not being out there. Things just weren't healing right, though. So I didn't have a lot of choice, really. |
It's not even his stats. It's more so his leadership. |
It's not even his stats. It's more so his leadership. When he walked in the huddle, he was in command. He really had you confident. Never when we were down or tired did we think we were going to lose. |
They had some jokes. They think they're funny. I got them back. |
This is my last time with these guys, I wouldn't miss it for anything. You want to play . . . let's just go ahead and tough it out for one more. But I've been dealing with this all season. It was time to go ahead and get it done. My teammates have been there for me, we're having a good time down here. |
We haven't done anything for him yet. We'll probably sing happy birthday to him or something. |
