• My favorite teammate of all time was Dan Reeves. Dan and I roomed together for four years. Dan's probably one of my best friends. I can understand him. He's from Americus, Ga., got that old, slow, southern drawl stuff. Dan's a great guy. Great competitor. He probably taught me more about football than any of the coaches did. He was still a student of the game. When you go from college to the pros, college football, yeah, you've got a playbook, but it ain't that big. Well when you get in the pros, you've got a playbook that's pretty thick. I was lost, really. But he showed me what to study and how to study.
