It's not that hard to be good, you can be good off raw talent. But I feel like it's that extra step, doing work and putting a body of work in and doing things when nobody else is watching. When nobody else is telling you to do it, you're pushing yourself to do it.

I'm a competitor; I like to try to be the best at everything I do.

It's always good to show that what you're doing is who you are, what you see on film in the regular season is what you're seeing at the Senior Bowl.

I've got a good team, got great agents that I know are going to handle the business side, and I trust those guys.
