I just wanted to prove that I can play wide receiver at a high level.
I try to prove that I can be either a wide receiver or a flex tight end. Put me in the slot, put me out wide, put me wherever you want, but I can play both.
There will always be hard times. Use adversity to fuel your fire. In high school, I wanted to play quarterback but couldn't until I was a senior. I played wide receiver instead, and this ultimately helped me because I learned more about the game.
If I was going to play offense, I'd love to play running back. In high school I played quarterback and wide receiver, but I wouldn't mind running over some folks.
For me, it's just about playing - getting the game time you need to prove to everyone you can play at that high level.
I'm a football player. I believe I'm just as tough as anybody else. I try not to play like a wide receiver.
As a junior in high school, I had some injury problems with my arm and shoulder from baseball, so I didn't play quarterback as a junior. I played a little wide receiver, linebacker, and safety.
I was a quarterback in pee-wee football. I always wanted to be quarterback. They're the leaders, they make the calls. It didn't work out because I didn't have the arm. I also played wide receiver my senior year in high school.
I pray that Jimmy Graham passes as a wide receiver. Because at the end of the day, if he passes as a wide receiver, that's better for the rest of the tight ends. He will have opened up a door, a pathway for the rest of the group.
I think the modern-day wide receiver, I would say that his skill level is not appreciated. It's not just about the numbers. It's the ability to catch the football and put your talent on display.
Dez Bryant isn't a quarterback. He's not a leader. He's a talented, high-maintenance wide receiver.
No teams have asked me to play wide receiver.
I love the physical part of the game. But I wanted to be a receiver, not just a big guy playing receiver.
In certain systems, receivers are just an X receiver or a Z receiver, and they just have to learn this route on this play.
In my opinion I really haven't done anything yet. I still have a lot to prove. I just want to prove to myself that I can play at the highest level of baseball in the world every day.
I wanted to prove people wrong who didn't think I could play at this level. I also wanted to take care of my family. It was a chance to play against the best players in the world. Mentally and physically I don't think I was ready, but I was ready to take on the challenge.
Marvin Harrison was the best receiver I played against, especially being a young player and just learning the game at this level. He was already at a high level, and the job was made even more difficult because it seemed like every time we played the Colts it was in Indianapolis, where they played on turf - that old AstroTurf.
