I think he's the best running back right now and I just wanted to get a chance to work out with him, see what it takes to be that guy and get to the level he's at. Whatever you think is the most you can work out, double that.
I'm happy for him and I know it'll work out for him. I'm behind him 100 percent. He's like my brother.
That was pure instincts. That wasn't premeditated at all. I was just trying to be a playmaker. I had used that play a bunch of times in high school, but it didn't work out this time.
For me, being an every-down back is key. It's one of my goals, and I think little things are going to help me do that, like pass blocking. The little things that are going to help you stay in there every down are the things I'm going to have to possibly work on.
It's unfortunate things didn't work out. It would have been real sweet winning it again in our hometown. But we've got nothing to hang our heads down about. Nobody can take away what we accomplished here.
I really put in a lot of extra work coming into this season.
