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.

Ronnie Lott

A wide receiver like me wouldn't have won. The quarterback - or even the running back - always wins.

Patrick Wilson

In eighth grade, I was actually better in football. I played running back, wide receiver, and safety - just like Allen Iverson.

John Wall

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.

Vernon Davis

I was a ball guy. I played basketball, baseball, football. I excelled in football the most. I played running back, wide receiver, safety, kick returner, punt returner.

Enzo Amore

People ask me who he reminds me of. The way he's playing, I'd say he doesn't remind me of anybody. I've never seen anybody - running back, quarterback, wide receiver - make the plays that Vince Young made today.

Dan Fouts

I think for me, or for anyone who plays the quarterback position, it's almost an unspoken word when you think about leadership. Some guys can be a leader and be a running back or a lineman, or wide receiver, strong safety, or linebacker. But when you speak of quarterbacks, it's automatically a default that you're supposed to be a leader.

Cam Newton

I didn't play receiver my whole life. I played running back, and I liked a bunch of running backs coming up, but I never tried to emulate them.

Stefon Diggs

As a wide receiver, you don't want to feel that the quarterback is only going to throw you the ball if you're wide open.

Cris Carter

It was fun, having speed and being able to jump. Especially playing football. I played wide receiver and defensive back.

Jacoby Ellsbury

I like using one QB. If we have two that are relatively equal, then we can't afford to have one on the bench. They need to be on the field at running back, receiver or defensive back. I'm not going to waste an athlete on the sidelines.

Alan Chadwick

I wanted to play running back, but they would never put me at running back. I started loving receiver and as I kept growing older, we kept throwing the ball more and I kept liking it more and more. It's something I've played all my life. It's something I've gotten better at each year.

Amari Cooper

I'm cool with it, running back, receiver, punt returner, it really doesn't make a difference to me.

Tavon Austin

At the tight end position, you're asked to do so many things. You'll see me split out wide singled up like a wide receiver.

Travis Kelce

Going from reporter to anchor is like going from wide receiver to quarterback. As anchor, you're running the plays and having the feel of the show - and knowing when to be more upbeat or slow down.
