Everyone goes down a road that they're not supposed to go down. You can do two things from it. You can keep going down that road and go to a dark place. Or you can turn and go up the hill and go to the top - try to go to the top.

You can never go wrong with a pair of jeans, a cool tailored shirt, and a nice jacket. You can dress it up with a more stylish jacket or a bracelet, watch, or necklace. It's simple, but it's cool. That's my opinion.

Tough times don't last. Tough people do. I preach that, and I guess you have to live to it.

I'll take an ugly win over a pretty loss any day.

Injuries are psychologically so hard for an athlete because you don't get to do what you love to do.

It's been a privilege to get to watch one of sports greatest athletes prepare and get to play with him; honestly... it's a dream. I remember being in eighth grade saying, 'I'm Tom Brady,' on the asphalt at recess, you know, playing football.

You can't worry about what other people say, honestly.

There's a whole lot of things that I've got to do to get myself better.

Ball security is job security here.

I think it's an honor to play for coach Belichick. You never go into a week thinking you are not prepared.

I put at the top of my paper every day, 'Never comfortable.' It's just how I feel always.

No one likes going out and sprinting 20 sprints, but you do it because it's going to help you.

The funnest thing to do is win.

You don't grow up saying you wanna play in the CFL.

It's always exciting to get back out there with the teammates and start a new year and get on the field.

I've always felt like if I had a bad practice, I could potentially get cut the next day.

The more everyone tries to do their own job, that's when the team fires on all cylinders.

I try to live by the 80/20 rule - 80% clean, 20% cheat. During the week and while I train, I eat as clean as possible. But I always like myself a good cheat day, which includes a juicy burger.

Any time you have one-on-one time with any quarterback, it's very valuable.

I don't even enjoy football, at least professional football, anymore because I'm breaking the game down constantly. You're sitting there watching the plays, and you're talking mental reps on what would I have done here against this coverage or this leverage, this, that. It is what it is.

There's nothing like a nice May day in Foxborough.

I started to get addicted to the Jerry Rice mentality. I can get up before anyone else does. I can outwork anyone.

Special teams is one-third of the game.

It's hard to shop for a guy who has everything.

I wear a lot of sweatshirts and joggers in the winter and gym shorts and tees in the summer. I really appreciate something that is easy to slip on and chill out in.

There's a lot of crazy stuff in this league, and you got to go out and you got to earn your role out every year.

Shake Shack is good, but it's no In-N-Out.

To be really honest, I do not mind whether it is offense or defense. I just like being in on plays and doing what needs to be done to help us win.

I definitely follow fashion and trends and will sporadically add them to my wardrobe in an organic way. But my style, at its core, is a minimal, clean, and timeless look.

I would say the greatest challenge, for me, had been my rookie year and learning my spot. It is an emotional battle, as you have good days and bad days. Being young and thrown into this big business is challenging.

People think it's just a 16-week season, but this is a 52-week kind of job. You're always thinking about how to improve and what to get for the next year.

If you give me six tries, I can probably land a kick flip.

So I've been fortunate to have a bunch of teammates - pretty much all the teammates I've had have been pretty good guys.

I'm a California kid.

When I am working out, I listen to inspirational speeches.

I'm from the Bay Area.

You've got these young kids out here that have to learn, but you learn from the guys above you. I learned from the Kevin Faulks.

When you become a pa, you have different priorities now, and you're not living for yourself; you're living for someone else now.

Life's about dealing with adversity and solving problems.

It's nice not having to do that kind of stuff, getting surgeries and all that. It gives you an opportunity to get better. That's what the offseason's for.

When I'm tired, I like to go and do drills where you catch tennis balls off walls. Different colors use different hands, and you've got to react to those types of things at different angles. I do all these crazy reaction-time things or reaction skills with tennis balls every morning, or at least four times a week.

Obviously, my goal No. 1 every year is to play in every game.

I just kind of try to go out and focus on what I've got to do to get myself better.

I am definitely a 'denim first' guy.

I think everything happens for a reason.

I don't say I'm necessarily a professional football player. I'm a competitor. That's what was instilled in me as a young boy.

I have fun outside the game.

Your job as a receiver is to get open and catch the ball and block in the run game.

When you're clicking, you're not making mental mistakes. You're going out there. You're lining up fast.

As a young player here in New England, there's a lot of ups and downs.
