Everybody suffers through some type of adversity. Does it make you stronger or does it pull you down? And I never will let any of that pull me down or pull me away from what I've set to achieve.

I'm just like the rest of the guys. I'm a little different in a lot of ways, but I'm still a player with a number on his back and if I'm unable to produce, they'll find somebody else to fill my spot.

I've talked to other players that have been to the Super Bowl and about what happened the next year. Everybody becomes stars. Everybody feels like, 'I'm the man.'

There are a lot of great players who have not won a Super Bowl.

It's sad that Walter Payton was not known as the greatest running back to play the game until they won the Super Bowl.

It's sad that we have to be measured by how many championships we win.

Well, we went to the Final Four in '96. As a college kid, that's what you dream about.

Making it to the Final Four, you feel like you're watched on campus. You're in the classroom, professors are talking about it.

I'm a Cubs fan, a Bulls fan.

I played every sport but hockey.

My numbers are better than Troy Aikman, but he has Super Bowl rings and he's played with Hall of Famers as well.

My numbers speak for itself.

I'm not hesitating on that. I am a Hall of Famer.

For me to bully anybody, that sounds unbelievable.

Chase Daniel is not a bad player.

Everybody's got a serious side and everybody's got a fun side.

When I get out on the field, you see me laughing so much because it's a dream come true. A lot of people wish they could do what I do, or wish they had an opportunity to do what I do. But not everybody's granted opportunity. I was, so I'm taking full advantage of it.

As an athlete or an entertainer, you don't want to be in a boring spot. You want to be in a spot where you're doing your thing to the best of your ability, and you know that you'll get a reaction.

There's not that many African-American quarterbacks, so we have to do a little bit extra. Because the percentage of us playing this position, which people didn't want us to play... is low, so we do a little extra.

I try to handle myself with class.

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.
