I went through my process of recovery and rehab and it’s been great. Obviously I do my due diligence and all those things. Being out sucks. That really is the number one thing as a football player, any athlete, you all know, you don’t want to be out - practice, game, whatever it is. Went through my process of getting that right and I feel amazing."
