I try to handle myself with dignity.

I think sometimes people look to players to act out, speak loudly, pretty much be an idiot. But that's not me.

Brian Dawkins, to me, in an era I played in, there were three, really four safeties where their numbers and their impact on the game stands alone.

That's the thing: To be successful in the NFL, you have to start by having a quality coach and a quarterback that can kind of lead the team. If you have the trust of the quarterback, then you can build everywhere else.

I hated being compared to anybody.

I don't look back and regret anything.

No way will I put my family and my life on the TV or be involved with something like a dating show or any type of reality show.

I've always been a big believer that winning a Super Bowl is an outstanding achievement, but that doesn't really reflect on what type of career that a person has had.

Many quarterbacks have won throughout their career and had a lot of success... and have a lot of wins, but were not able to win that Super Bowl... But that is the ultimate goal.

That's the competitive nature in me. Just wanting to be the best and wanting to do everything I have to in order for this team to make it that far. You put pressure on your shoulders.

I need to go out and play football and have fun. If I do that, then everything will be fine.

What I've come up with is that I just need to be me.

Everything I say, I expect backlash from it.

No matter what your accomplishments are, the records you've broken, etc., when a team is ready to move in a direction - they're ready.

First of all I'm not a fan of Twitter. Nothing against their program or what they have, but as an athlete I think you need to get off of Twitter.

Any time you get into that chip on the shoulder, trying to prove that I can do this and I can do that, it takes away from what you're capable of doing and who you are as a player, as well as a person.

Obviously you try to learn from the past and your mistakes and how you can become a better player as well as a better person.

I stay motivated no matter what.

You see great players, Hall of Fame players that didn't stay with their team.

I never agreed too much about players talking about former teammates when they go somewhere else. I've never been a fan of that.

Determination Over Negativity is a belief that anything is possible no matter who you are or where you come from.

It's not always going to be perfect but to have your teammates have your back through the ups and downs, it means the world.

I don't like being told what you're good at. I'd rather hear what I didn't do.

I'm on a no-gummy bear or juice diet, and my body feels like it's dying on the inside.

People make fun of Utah nightlife, but it's actually dope. I love it.

I've never been the top dog. I've always been the underdog. And that's why I relate so much to Utah, because we're underdogs, we're overlooked, kind of thought of as an afterthought.

I'm probably not supposed to say this, but the truth is, there were so many times when I thought about quitting basketball, even when I was at Louisville. My freshman year, I shot 18 for 72 from three.

I'm able to defend. A lot of guys don't have that willingness to defend and I think as a guard who's undersized - that's what everybody says; I'm undersized - I'm able to defend and willing to defend and bring that.

Women have to be protected more.

I can't have no assists and five turnovers. If you have no assists and five turnovers, you have to look yourself in the mirror and figure out how to adjust.

I couldn't shoot and I couldn't score in high school. All I could do is dunk and play defense.

I'm always willing to do whatever it takes.

There are shoes in my closet that people would go crazy over. That's where my giving back comes in. I might never wear these shoes, but some kids would go crazy for them.

When you take away everything else, 'Star Wars' is really an underdog story. Even Luke came from humble beginnings, and he ended up being one of the most powerful Jedi out there.

I think you should invest in a company that you really enjoy working with and being with.

When I was a kid, my favorite event was the Slam Dunk Contest.

I'm a very, very impatient person when it comes to breaking news.

I know guys in the league say, 'Oh yeah, I love X, Y, Z city.' But man, I genuinely love Utah.

Sometimes those shots I take won't go in but I'm going to continue to take the same shots.

I was never able to be a part of U.S.A. Basketball in high school or college. So for me, it's a privilege.

I grew up around a lot of the major leaguers, guys like David Wright, Pedro Martinez, Jose Reyes, and I think that's what really helped me. You see the routine they get, the humility they have.

I'm from New York. You walk by, you bump somebody and they give you a look. There's always an attitude.

It's easy to give back to people who are so genuine and kind.

Everybody likes to look at the end goal, but when you sit back and reflect, I played on Team U.S.A. That's incredible for me. I think that in itself is amazing.

I have a tendency to freak myself out.

You never know when this can be gone. It's sad to say, but with all the injuries around the league, it can be gone in a blink of an eye.

I didn't think I was going to be drafted, to be honest. I'm so serious. I mean, wholeheartedly, too. I don't know. I didn't realize it, probably, until about a week and a half, two weeks before the Draft.

My mom raised me.

During the season, I'm always locked in one gear, ready to play basketball, always keeping my guard up.

Growing up, my mom used essential oils in our home, so I've always noticed the benefits and now incorporate them in my daily routine.
