Growing up, we talked about all you have is your last name. That's what people will remember you by and that's how people know you. You have to do everything you can to not blemish your last name.

I wish we could do a better job of understanding what we're doing to kids, because it can be better. It's unfair to give up on these young black kids. We don't do that to white kids.

At the end of the day, I believe we can all work to foster a spirit of compassion, understanding, and awareness within our communities.

I'm conscious to know who I am as a young man and what I want to be off the field and how I want to impact other people.

I think I've done a good job of trying to figure out ways to continue to use my voice and platform for the right things.

If police are upset about an individual wearing pig socks, they need to understand why those socks exist in the first place.

We want equality for everyone and justice when it's time for that.

I connect deeply with SAVE's mission and I realize it doesn't matter which specific group you're fighting for, that everyone deserves equality, everyone deserves safety, and everyone deserves to be able to live their lives free of hate, fear and discrimination.

I've been in my share of trouble.

Activism isn't something you just kind of get involved in and then turn your back on it.

Any team, if you can rattle the quarterback you have an opportunity to win the game.

I'm not a big fan of any team; I'm a fan of players.
