I wasn't a person to cry or point fingers or find any sympathy.Collection: Sympathy
One thing I can say is I'm thankful. It's been a long road for me through my injuries.Collection: Thankful
It's all about patience and I'm sure my time will come. I'm learning what it takes to be successful and I'm doing the things the coaches tell me.Collection: Patience
I'm about the wins and any time I get to touch the ball, hopefully I can make something good happen with it.
I kinda motivate myself and keep me on my toes.
A lot of people feed off my energy. I have to keep that up. I can't just be loud one day and the next day saying nothing.
If we're losing, I probably won't be talking as much. I'll probably be more talking to my pads.
I gave my blood, sweat and tears over here - the St. Louis Rams, then coming to the L.A. Rams.
I've been a little guy my whole life.
I think it's real big to be honest just because of how the media say I'm a bust and all of that stuff. I really don't pay too much attention to it but I know one thing about it is when I'm focused, I'm focused.
Coach Cignetti has got a good scheme, good plan for me, going to try to get the ball in my hands as much as possible.
I can block, I can catch and I can run. It's about being in the right spot at the right time.
It feels good to have your own name on something.
I'm kind of hard on myself.
For me, it's more about the mental game, learning coverages, learning the whole offensive playbook.
You're always going to feel disrespected because you're getting traded. Evidently, you ain't doing something right or you ain't getting it done or they don't believe in you.
I love the Rams to death.
I'm the flag man. That's been happening to me since I've been in the league.
A lot of people say small guys can't get it done. But at the end of the day, it depends on how big your heart is.
I kind of approach every game the same. At the end of the day, it's another game.
The league is changing. There are a lot more small receivers now. I could see myself maybe in a slot like Wes Welker.
I believe that just because of my size people are always saying, 'You can't do this, you can't do that.'
I look at it this way: If the defender gets the chance they'll lay it on you. So for the most part I just try to go out there and bring it to them like they would try to do to me.
All I can do is come in and work hard and hope my number is called.
I'm strong. A lot of people don't think I'm that strong, but I am.
Size doesn't really matter. It's all about the mental aspect of the game and having the heart. I have a lot of heart and I take a lot of pride in what I do. That's what got me over the hump.
My mom was pretty young, and she did what she could do.
If you talk to my former coaches, they'll tell you that I'm really smart on the football field.
There's always going to be a chip on my shoulder.
I'm the type of person, you know, I don't throw nobody under the bus for nothing.
The same way I run now, I swear, is the same way I ran when I was 6 years old.
The Rams believed in me and I believed in them.
I just know that whenever my name gets called, I'm happy, and I'm ready to get in there.
At the end of the day, there's only one ball.
I've never been a captain of a team. But people always listen just because of my work ethic.
I definitely will take the role on being in leadership.
A lot of teams are looking for that type of player to do multiple things on the field, and I think I'm that guy.
I've seen a couple mock drafts that have me going to the Baltimore Ravens. And if it happens like that, it'll be a blessing. But I'd like to go anywhere that calls my name.
My whole time at Dunbar, I've had great players around me. My teammates, my coaches.
I'll do whatever I need to. I'm not selfish.
Combine speed is overrated. It might give you a good look to see what you can run in a straight line, but football's not played in a straight line.
For a minute, I thought I had a learning disability.
I've tried to learn what everybody is doing, not just my one position. If you know the whole scheme, it's easier.
I always want to do something to help a person.
Now I think since I've hit the scene and did a little bit more, other teams are saying I'm one of the guys they have to stop.
I wanted to go away from home, but not too far from home.
It feels good that teams appreciate my versatility and think that I can step in and be that player, making plays all over the field.
Since the first time I touched the football, people always told me I was blessed, that I had something special.
A lot of people told me the NFL would never happen, but I didn't listen to them.
I might not be producing that much with the ball in my hands, but my fakes, my jet sweeps, it's doing numbers, and that's the main thing about it.
