If you wanted to go out on a date or something you and your date better go Dutch because you really don't have the money to spend.

What types of rookie hazing have you gone through so far?
There is a law against hazing so we don't haze! But one of my teammates -- running back Mike Bennet the class clown -- got me with the water bottle trick already. We were on water break and I had my back turned to him when he asked me so I took the bottle ... not being aware that he unscrewed the top and it was a full bottle also. So I get ready to take a drink and all of a sudden the top of the bottle comes off and I was hit with the trick! I had water all up my nose and all down my jersey it was a funny trick but I bet i will get the last laugh I will get him back soon when he thinks I have forgoten about it.

What's it like being in an NFL training camp?
Being in an NFL training camp is so much work because now you are fighting for a position on the team because in this game anybody can be let go at any time, so it can be sometimes stressful. But then you have the times when you are around your teammates and it is so much fun just to be out there.

Why was playing in the NFL your dream?
Playing in the NFL was always a dream for me because growing up and watching my uncle Tim McDonald I just wanted to be just like him when I grew up. I also loved the game of football more than anyone I knew and I wouldn't be denied playing this game. I also never wanted to let my younger cousins TJ and Tevin McDonald and Billy Wright every see me fail at anything I do, so it's making them push harder to get where I am. This is everything I ever wished for and it's crazy because I can remember when I was that little kid on the other side of the fence wanting to get the players' autographs and just being at my uncle's practices on the field with the players. Now that I'm a grown man and I'm on the other side of the fence it is a blessing!
