Everybody has to be accountable on every play. The main thing is that we have to do our job. Going through all of the keys, making sure we are making the right reads, blocking the right person and getting the right route depth. Everything.
Julio Jones
Every receiver should feel that he's the best. It's all about confidence.
I feel like I'm capable of doing anything and everything. I just got to come to work every day.
The player I am, if I drop a ball, keep throwing it.
I've got to keep showing up every day and putting in work.
I don't think about yardage.
It's all about winning matchups.
I got to go out there and catch the ball, be more of a deep threat.
I'm just going out there doing whatever it takes to win the game, to help my brothers out. It's not me against one other person.
I wouldn't be the person I am today without Roddy White. He's helped teach me how to be a man.
I'm just trying to be the best teammate.
It's one of those things when you're down in the red area, a lot of teams double me. Two-man, guys sit underneath me, so I can't really slant. They have a safety kind of cheated out, as far as the fade balls and things like that. But when we get our opportunities, we've got to make people pay.
It's football - you're going to get banged up.
A lot of times, people need to vent to people and know that what they're telling you is not going to be shared with anyone else. Or they know you're going to give them 'the real.' Just being truthful to them when they're right, they're right, and when they're wrong, they're wrong.
If anybody is considering retirement. I'm all for it. You've got to live your life. I can't live your life for you.
It don't cost nothing to go out there and compete. You're either going to do it or you're not. And I'm going to compete every down, so it don't matter.
I'm very tough and I have a high tolerance for pain.
You're going to be successful or you're not going to be successful. You have to handle success and not being successful in the same way.
Just every year, every day, I just try to better myself. What can I do better to make it easier for me and my teammates?
I'm just trying to play. My thing is to play ball.
You just want to live a life after football. You want to be able to walk around.
Honey Buns, that was my go-to. I mean, when I first came into the league, I was a young kid eating everything.
I always try to work on everything. I always try to stay fine-tuned.
I'm going to do what I can to give back to Tuscaloosa because they've been there for me from the start.
Like I said, I'm a professional; I don't want to hurt myself nor the team.
Our main focus is to score when we get in the red zone - not field goals.
I know my teammates got me, and they know I've got them.
I wish they could do away with the franchise tag.
You should never put another man in front of you and say he's better than you.
You can never play a perfect game.
I don't get like when people say Josh Norman is tough. Don't get me wrong, he's a good player.
I feel like if you have the time to give somebody, listen to their problems.
I don't need preseason to get ready.
I'm never frustrated. I create a stress-free environment. Everything I do, I'm never stressed about nothing. I'm mentally strong. I never let anything get to me. I just think stuff through. I'm a deep thinker.
So many people are going to always remember what you do and how you make them feel instead of you telling them this and telling them that. That's why I like to go out and show the work ethic and how I am as a teammate. That's how you become great.
When you step on the field, you should feel that you're the best, you and whoever your partner is.
We are just going to keep putting the work in and just wait until it pays off.
I mean like for me to be at my best, I have a routine. So I need to go to sleep - I need to eat and I need to go to bed.
I just go out there and just do what I'm told to do.
You can have all the talent in the world, but it's the ability to go out there every day and try to get better. And that's the key to being successful and being successful for a long time.
Me, I'm coming to work, I'm practicing hard every day, I'm eating right, I'm getting the proper sleep, I'm getting the proper rest, everything, I'm giving you all I have. I'm not going to pout if we lose. Yeah, I'm upset I lost, but it's not going to be to that degree like I'm cussing, get away from me, this and that.
With social media, there are no facts behind it. People hear something, and they just run with it. And things get spread, good or bad.
I have no weaknesses. I have no weaknesses at all.
I like Quintorris. It means 'Gladiator.'
People talk about my work ethic sometimes more than my playing ability, which is nice.
I have great relationships with a lot of guys around the league.
I'm supposed to catch everything.
I'm not a selfish guy, I'm not a stats guy.
The biggest challenge for me was all the rumors you heard before you get to the NFL. You know, just hearing guys won't help you. They'll turn your back on you, they'll tell you the wrong plays, everything like that.
I'm always willing to learn.
