“I’m instinctive. I’m still learning how to run the ball. What I’ve done may look good to everyone else, but I know I’m capable of more than I’ve shown.”

“I was a pretty good DB, but I realized one day I would rather have someone trying to tackle me than me trying to tackle guys like Jerome Bettis and Eddie George.”

“I don't feel like there should have been three backs taken ahead of me. And I'll always feel that way. But there's only one draft, and I can't change it. All I can do is go out and prove myself.”

“I don't feel like I have to live up to anything because I've proven that I can play. Give me the ball and let's go.”

“Hopefully I don't have to play for eight years but can go and relax somewhere and do something enjoyable while I'm still young.”

“I just figured it was a matter of time before I got to play.”

“A man can wear pink if he has confidence, if he believes in himself and knows he's man enough to do it.”

“Every day I wake up, I say, 'Damn, I hope I don't get that call today.' I don't want to lose my mama. When I start thinking about that, I fall into a hole.”

“On offense, you can fumble and they still talk about you.”

“I can be a receiver, a cornerback, a safety and quarterback—I can play everything.”

“I have a special gift, and I go out and use it. I don't think you can hide it. I'm just confident in myself—always have been.”

“I have the opportunity to control what happens in a game. I'll have the ball in my hand, and only I know what I'm going to do with it.”

“I'm not bitter at all. I think my memories in Denver are great.””
