I never mean to make a headline where it's like, 'Chris Long unsure.' I never try to make it sound like I'm under the impression it matters either way if I play or anybody cares.

Before I was a champion, I failed, and I was afraid.

You'll learn that the most worthwhile exercises are preceded by this very human phenomenon, fear. Marriage, parenthood, relationships.

Everyone fears change. But what you'll find is that change breeds your most important accomplishments.

You may doubt the significance of your work, but work faithfully anyways.

Some people are tired of hearing me tweet because they want me to stick to football but I like to use social media like I was a regular guy because I think I am.

This is not supposed to be a fascist country, where you are forced to do things you don't want to do. This is a free country.

I just like playing ball.

At 33 years old, I think any player my age should take time to take inventory and see what their situation is and see how the body feels.

My wife and I have been passionate about education being a gateway for upward mobility and equality.

I am honored to be named the 2018 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year and to join the long line of men who have received this prestigious honor.

At the end of the day, Coach Belichick does a great job of bringing in people he knows that will fit well.

I think preparing every week like it's the most important game in the world makes things a little easier once you get in situations where a lot more people are watching and it might be a lot more important for people outside of the building.

The lead initiative of my foundation is clean water, but not far behind it is military appreciation.

Actually, I wanted to play baseball. Honestly, I just think with a kid developing, playing a lot of sports, it's just kind of whatever you're good at.

I've been through nine camps, and they're all a little bit different, but at the end of the day, it's just football.

I look at the opportunity to play football as a blessing and I think what doesn't kill you certainly makes you stronger.

I'm not somebody that's been a natural at anything.

In my training in the summer, back in the day, I used just go, go, go! I wouldn't take any days off, I would do whatever I wanted, as much as I wanted of it.

Robert Quinn. He's ridiculous. He can do anything a DB can do... at three hundred pounds!

Continuity is one of the hardest things to come by in the NFL.

I think a lot of winning a Super Bowl is being at the right place at the right time. It's sacrifice, it's making team plays and being an impactful player is part of it.

I like that outlaw crossover rock 'n' roll-country sound.

The older you get, it is harder to prepare physically, even if you have all the experience in the world. You're more sore the next day, you can't pack in as much, and you have to train smarter. You have to pay attention to more subtle things like your warmup routine or core work.
