My goal was to be a good player in this league. Got my butt up out of bed and got to the gym. ”

When I got the call that the Patriots were interested, it was a very surreal feeling. I've always looked up to watching them play. They've been a team that has a long history of winning. Just to be considered to be a part of this team is a great honor. ”

The locker room I don't think is a huge place for guys to really, you know, talk politics. ”

It's been a long road. I've been cut, I've been all over the place, but my mentality has never changed. ”

I always go back to who I am as a player, and what got me into the league. It wasn't by demanding the ball or anything. It was about doing what's best for the team, doing my job the best I can, showing up on film and making the plays when they come my way during games. That's what I focus on every single week. ”

It's tough to put that in perspective, playing in back-to-back-to-back Super Bowls. ”

I started when I was in sixth grade, playing Pop Warner. I played running back, quarterback, cornerback... all over the place. ”

You want to go out there and do what's best for the team, help your team move the ball down the field, make plays, help them win football games. ”

It's a lot of fun to be able to share special moments with my kids and wife. ”

The air in Foxborough is just a little different. Like, Special things happen here. Winning happens here. ”
