“I want people to know that I’m going to leave every single thing on the field.”

Playing the scout-team quarterback in practice really helped develop my game.

The team aspect of football and just playing quarterback, having the ball in your hands, having to make the plays, that was definitely something I loved.

Every experience, good or bad, you have to learn from.

You can have the big arm, and that’s good, and it helps out in the games, but it doesn’t help you necessarily win games.

I just try to learn from every mistake that I make so that I never make them again.

If you want to win games in this league, you have to be efficient.

I was that little kid: I was the one that was looking up to athletes and getting to see them and getting to be a part of it, and I remember those experiences.

You dream of your first NFL start when you’re a little kid, playing football in the backyard, but until you get there, you never know what to expect.

I didn’t start playing football a lot until I was in high school. I played it in seventh and eighth grade, but I didn’t play Pop Warner or anything.

I was a good student and stuff like that.

Kids in sports – it makes such an impact in life with the lessons that you learn.

I feel like, even if something goes wrong, I have confidence in myself and my team that we’ll fix it.

Until you get there, you never know what to expect.

East Texas isn’t known for producing quarterbacks. I was never really on the football circuit. I wasn’t the type of guy that put my name out there.

It’s a challenge for all quarterbacks, though: You want to make the big play; you want to throw a touchdown every single play. But at the same time, you have to know that it’s a process.

Throughout my whole football career, I have always known I wasn’t the fastest guy.

Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.

I have no friends and I never leave my house.

Television is not real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

A smart girl leaves before she is left

Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.

When a man leaves you, he won’t be back.

Better was it to go unknown and leave behind you an arch, then to burn like a meteor and leave no dust.

Either give me more wine or leave me alone.
