My job is just to get open and catch the ball so I don't really focus on who the quarterback is. But I try to build a rapport with whoever is calling the plays.
Your job as a receiver is to get open and catch the ball and block in the run game.
You've just got to get open and catch the ball.
When we're able to get stops, get the ball off the glass and run, you never know who's going to get the ball. Everyone takes off, runs to their spots, and the ball just finds the open man.
My job is to catch the ball no matter how they throw it - hard, soft, medium. You've got to be able to catch it.
I catch the ball. You throw the ball, I catch it. You throw it close to me, I catch it. If you make me do something crazy to catch, I still catch it.
From the rough, I'd use a 6-iron, play the ball back an inch or two and swing down on a steeper angle to catch the ball first. It also helps to aim slightly left and open the clubface at address. You'll get more height on the shot, and the club will cut through the grass more easily.
I think I'm a good enough ball handler to bring the ball up the basketball court, and my teammates do a great job of getting open.
It's just boring to see a team punt the ball and have the returner fair-catch the ball all the time.
This is my moment, this is my chance to make a difference, and you know, I just went for the ball, I attacked it, and I went and got it, ... I was gonna catch that ball, regardless of what happens.
My teammates give me a hard time about that all the time, 'Hey, if you catch the ball and get in an open field, I want you to long jump from the 10 into the end zone.'... I might make it happen one of these days.
I used to catch and take a big dip down and then finally I'd try to shoot. That first year playing the NBA, I was realizing how little time you have to shoot the ball. The time you have from when you catch it to the guy closing out is just a split second. So I had to figure out a way to get my shot off quicker. Then it was just repetition.
Everybody has their own answer of what a catch should be. I say, secure the ball; if the ball is not moving, it's a dead ball, simple as that.
My husband cannot throw the ball and catch the ball at the same time. I can't believe they dropped the ball so many times.
Baseball is a universal language. Catch the ball, throw the ball, hit the ball.
It's very rare that you just get stuck with the ball. You're going to get somebody open.
