Usually, when you're one of the better kids in your area, there's a lot of people that try to talk to you.

We all love to see each other do well. We all love to help each other.

It kind of brought me back to reality. To let me know I can do it. I knew I could do it before, but you kind of need to do it to reassure yourself.

Where I've come from, I've heard trash talking before. Once we settled down, once we caught a couple passes, you kind of tune that out.

As you can see, once Michael gets into a groove his passing gets better. And that's our job as receivers, to start making catches and make him feel confident.

I'm not the type of guy that needs to be in the spotlight and sometimes I used it as motivation. Those guys are great and I'd like to do what they do. I just felt that, when I get my chance, I'd be able to do some things that they do.

They weren't great catches. We just ran the route.

It brings a whole new excitement going to somebody else's field and just taking it over and making it your own.
