You're going to hit some rough patches. You're going to run into obstacles. People are going to say, 'You can't do it.' But you have to persevere. You have to keep working hard and believing in yourself.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
You're out there on an island. It's just you and the best receiver, man-to-man, in one-on-one coverage a lot of the time. And you don't really get any help. If you get beat, everyone can see. If you get scored on, everyone knows. That's the difficulty of playing corner.

The best corners can play everywhere.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I think I was just very determined, on a whole other level, just to play in this league.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
The underdog is a person that's at risk, a person that has a lot of big trials you have to overcome. I mean, that was my life.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
You just never know how back injuries are going to affect you.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
My mom, she thought I was the best. My sisters, maybe, but maybe that's not objective or anything. But if you believe in yourself, your family believes in you, you put in the work, do it right, you only need one other person to believe in you. That doesn't seem like a lot, but sometimes it is.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I want to be a Bronco forever. I just want the feeling to be the same from the Broncos.
Chris Harris, Jr.
-
I want to keep getting all-pros, keep stacking them.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I'm undrafted. It's always going to be like that. I have to go above and beyond on everything that I do, even though I have the stats.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
The franchise tag, it's a one-year deal. I would like a little bit more stability.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
If I'm playing bad, then I know we're not winning a lot of games, and we're definitely not No. 1 in pass defense.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I loved Lil Wayne growing up; he was like the king when I was growing up. I remember 'Fireman.' That was one of my favorite songs.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
You practice how you play. I still believe that.
Chris Harris, Jr.
-
I would love to be in a zone concept every once in a while. Probably later on in my career.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
To be able to bring a championship back to Denver means everything.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
There is always pressure playing cornerback. It's just a position where you're always in the spotlight.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
It's tough when you get beat. You have to be able to come back mentally. Sometimes the offense is going to win, but you have to be able to be level-headed and not get too upset when they do catch the ball.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I think having a strong wife and having a solid family are things that have helped me out a lot.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
As a cornerback, you only get probably about 5 chances to really impact the game.

My boys - T.J. Ward, Aqib Talib, Kayvon Webster, DeMarcus Ware, all those guys - I built very, very close relationships with those guys, and I would like to continue to build that for the rest of my career.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I know that if I am playing at an all-pro level, our defense is playing well.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I like playmakers, man, if it's a playmaker on defense or offense, just a guy who is going to put up some points, a guy who's going to be able to change the game.
Chris Harris, Jr. -
I think you have to have the talent, and guys have to believe in what you're doing. Everybody has to play to the end.
