‘Our coaches do a good job of preparing us, the starters as well as the backups. The coach in charge of my position (the defensive backs coach), George Catavolos, has always preached to us we have to prepare like we’re the starter. Even if we’re not the starter, to prepare like we’re going to be the starter. Because in this league you’re one play away from an opportunity you’ve been waiting for your entire lifetime. And you’re one play away from having a career-ending injury, so you have to make the most of every opportunity.’
