This is a great way to kickoff this weekend - to get the good award and get to celebrate it with the whole organization and my teammates. To me, leadership is getting guys to believe in a common goal and to make extraordinary things happen. I just want to be an extension of the coach out there and get his message across.
I feel very privileged and it's an honor to win an award like this. With leadership comes respect and I guess I've earned some respect along the way. I like to think I do things the right way. I have been here a long time and I can say that I have learned from some good guys when I came into the league. The Jason Taylors. The Zach Thomases. I am ready to embrace the role. It makes me feel good to share this award with JT. Coming into the league, JT always did it the right way. He set the blueprint, not only for me, but for a lot of guys in that locker room. Just to be along-side him for this award is very special.
I've been through my ups and downs in this league and I am very fortunate just to be here. I thank God everyday that he brought me through all the things that he did and I just want to continue to make strides. I love the game and I enjoy playing it. I love my teammates. I love my coaches. I just thank the Dolphins organization for sticking behind me.
