That's something I loved growing up - the other team yelling, hyped, student section, all of that gets me going.

The competitive spirit and the way we worked hard growing up came naturally to me from my family.

My whole family growing up played sports, so I'm definitely from a strong sporting background.

I'm going to get criticized my whole career.

It wasn't like I grew up wanting to be a competitive eater at all. Not like a lot of people, like football players, famous people - they knew that that's what they wanted to do when they were young.

To have a platform to make a difference ultimately, which is what I want to do with my life, we’ve got to win football games. When you’re highly paid and your losing, no one really cares what you have to say."

I'm much more starstruck by athletes than I am by actors, and I think I saw Kobe Bryant at a basketball party, and I just kind of froze. He's monstrous.

There's little place for sympathy in football.
