You know how they have the speakers that come in and talk about motivation, and they say, ‘Find why you’re playing this game’? I’m always sitting in the back, just like, ‘I don’t know. I’m just good at it.’ Now it feels good knowing why I’m playing football.”

dude has no passion for the game.
Sounds just like Michael Westbrook and others. Im including the part of the article where he answers his question. Kids/money as motivation (Like J Reed) is a weak answer imo. I want guys that eat, breathe and sleep football. Not guys who look at this like its a 9-5.

“I kind of snapped. I was like, ‘I’ve got kids, man! I love my little girls!’ . . . I was so locked in on my family and my girls, and from that point on, I was like, ‘I’m playing football for those girls. That’s what my motivation is. That’s what I’m playing for.'”
