Chris Harris, Jr.

I loved Lil Wayne growing up; he was like the king when I was growing up. I remember 'Fireman.' That was one of my favorite songs. ”

Coming in as an undrafted rookie, I wanted to make sure I competed every day against those talented receivers. Brandon Lloyd, he was a great guy to go against because I did a lot of scout team. Going against him every day along with all those other receivers really helped me polish my game. ”

My strategy is just to always compete. Even if they catch 10 balls on me, I make sure that they have to fight for every one of those. That's worked for me. ”

As a cornerback, you only get probably about 5 chances to really impact the game. ”

If I'm playing bad, then I know we're not winning a lot of games, and we're definitely not No. 1 in pass defense. ”

To be able to bring a championship back to Denver means everything. ”

That's the only way you can stop a guy like Cam Newton. Hit him. He's unstoppable, so whenever he does try to run like a running back, you got to punish him. ”

You just never know how back injuries are going to affect you. ”

It's tough when you get beat. You have to be able to come back mentally. Sometimes the offense is going to win, but you have to be able to be level-headed and not get too upset when they do catch the ball. ”

I knew I needed to find a way to stay out of trouble and to have good grades to be able to stand out. ”
