My family has made a lot of sacrifices for me, and I'm looking forward to being there for them.

I see a lot of myself in a young Mike Vrabel. He is very competitive. He is very respectful of the game, but he looks at each opportunity as an opportunity to prove something that people don't think you can do, and he'll create that narrative.

Football is the total team game.
