Last thing on my radio: “Over My Dead Body” by Drake

Football has taught me: “The spotlight is always on a quarterback, but football is a team sport. You have to have a team around you, and in life you need to have good people with you to be successful.”

Childhood memory: “The first time I played football in my backyard. I was 7 years old. We were playing against the big boys — teenagers — and scored three times. That’s the first time I knew I could play football.”

Biggest athletic thrill: “Senior Night” against Southern Vance in 2011, throwing a game-winning pass to Stephen Winsor with zero time left on the clock.

Most people don’t know: “I’ve been at least 200 pounds since fourth grade.”

Pregame ritual: “I always listen to Enya.”

Words to live by: “I’ve been looking or my father all my life, and then I realized I was just looking for myself and trying to become the man he never was.”
