He's real close to being like Marshall. The one thing about Marshall was that he was the smartest player I've ever been around. He's a guy who knew what everybody in the offense was supposed to be doing on every play. I'm not just talking about the running backs. I'm talking about everybody.

He can do pretty much everything.

I am very excited to join the Eagles. I have heard many great things about the organization and they have one of the best teams in the league. They have won a lot of football games. I can't wait to get going in practice. I am looking to contribute in any way I can to help keep that thing going forward.

We were both from small schools.

I'm not looking to jump in and be a star or whatever. They've got things going down here so I can just jump in and do what I can and help this team. I can just assist, have fun with it, and you can have fun when you win games.
