I think it's going to be my year. Coaches feel it, and they're giving me a role where I can make plays and help the defense.

It really wasn't that special, ... It was just helping out a fellow teammate. I knew the cornerback was going to be in a jam with the inside receiver running a little stick route, and I just tried to make a play and help him out.

[That lasted all of] a day, ... After that I was on the scout team - defensive end, matter of fact. I guess I was too aggressive, man.

People really don't know or they really ain't watching, ... Got to give them something to see.

The talent, man, was outrageous. Rudi Johnson was already there, and we were busting Rudi Johnson. Our whole scout team defense had fun out there.

It's the atmosphere. Playing in front of 105,000, 95,000, 90,000. You get used to it so when you come to this level, you hit the ground running.

That was something special. Those guys laid a lot on the line. You've got to give them their respect. I just had to tell them, 'Thank you.' They did a lot for us here, protecting us.

Last year, at the end of the season, I had a great run. Now I've got more opportunities to be out on the field, and I'm just trying to take advantage of them.

That's why Coach Green brought me here, ... They saw me coming out of Auburn and I'm just trying to meet expectations.
