Athlete

I never really grew up watching TV.

My softer side? I mean, I like to snuggle.

When Coach Belichick comes up to you during a game and says something to you, that's great.

Everyone always helped me out growing up, and everyone now supports me Sunday. So whenever there's a chance to give back, to the community, to the less fortunate kids so they have the opportunity to gain the most potential they can in their life to be success, it's always good to do.

I've watched 'Family Guy,' growing up and throughout my whole life.

I work hard to get the body right, and then I kind of just go off the map when on vacation.

You always want to be on top of the playbook. You always want to be refreshed with the plays, make sure you're on the same page with everyone else.

I like anywhere with a beach. A beach and warm weather is all I really need.

After a game, after a week of eating right, eating clean, you feel like that's when you deserve a nice cheat meal and basically hop on anything after the game.

It's always tough to get back into football shape.

I just go with the flow, day by day, week by week.

Fans think that we're, like, football 24/7. We're all about life after football, too.

You want to be the best at work in order to go out and celebrate.

Yoga is too slow.

I was shy at dancing. I practice at home. I was practicing in the mirror. Dancing everywhere. Then I just started feeling good. I started feeling coordinated. I started feeling the music better.

I've got to keep on working, keep on grinding, and keep on going out there to get better.

You have no confidence when you come out of surgery because you can't really do anything. You're like, 'Man, am I ever going to heal?'

You have to learn the playbook inside and out. You have to learn code words for each play. You have to learn defenses.

You've got to catch the ball.

You can't do it all. You get many requests all the time, but I still have to focus on football, still have to live my life a little bit. But there are definitely times during the week when you want to take time out.
