I think it just kind of comes naturally to me. I feel like I’ve been coached that way my whole life – to play dirty and to play mean.

"
All I can really control is what I do on the field, how I play on Sundays and how I work during the week, ... I can't really control what people think of me. They praise me now, but I guarantee if I start not doing well, they're going to start bashing me.
