You definitely see what goes on around the league. That's why I keep preparing myself. But right now I'm a Redskin, and I enjoy being a Redskin, and hopefully I'll continue to be a Redskin for my whole career. I just keep preparing myself in case I do have to be the number one guy.

Hopefully, we can get something similar like we had in the first game, when we had a 1-2 punch.

I thought it was just a bruise, ... I figured I'd be able to shake it off. But it didn't get any better, so we X-rayed it at halftime. . . . We'll just have to see how long it takes to heal. They didn't tell me.

I took it as a compliment for coach to sit me down and tell me that, ... especially from a coach who has been around a lot of ballplayers and seen a lot of successful ballplayers and had a lot of winning teams. For a coach to say something like that means a lot.

I just keep preparing myself like I'm the number one guy.
