The NFL is a performance-based business, so you should have to perform to earn some of your money. At the same time, I realize that my success isn’t just because of what I do out there.
I have great respect for people’s right to believe what they want to believe. And I don’t think anybody should be prosecuted or judged based on what their beliefs are.
My dad, being a businessman, constantly talked to me about carrying myself in a certain way and treating people with respect. And I think that’s something that’s carried over throughout my life. It’s how I deal with certain situations.
I have great respect for the religion. I know a lot of people that are Muslim and are phenomenal people.
All my life, I’ve had these flashbacks, these dreams, nightmares, daymares, like visions, where I relive certain plays. Only the bad plays. I see them over and over, as if somebody’s rewinding a tape and forcing me to watch.
I don’t watch too much TV when it comes to sports or news or things like that.
Victor Cruz just got his deal with Givenchy – amazing. I was so excited for him. That was amazing. So I think there are great opportunities for a lot of athletes out there.
It is funny to me that because I can run, because I’m athletic, people tend to see that as my only asset.
There’s a lot of things that need to change. One specifically? Police brutality.
Most people don’t want to change. They’re comfortable and set in their ways. But in order to change, you have to be able to agitate people at times. And I think that’s something that’s very necessary for us to improve as a country.
People are dying in vain because this country isn’t holding their end of the bargain up as far as, you know, giving freedom and justice and liberty to everybody.
