“I feel like I’ve finally made it here,” Stewart said. “Growing up is like any other person’s, the odds are slim, the chances of you succeeding are slim, and when you finally put on the (racing suit), it makes you feel really alive.” 

‘Now I have to make a name for myself. I can’t even begin to tell you how long I’ve been dreaming about this.’

Stewart’s long-term holdout has forced him to find a new training ground and return to the place he knows best, Texas A&M, leading Bengals fans to panic that he might not sign with the Tigers until the issue is resolved and the 21-year-old will now have to adjust to his teammates to begin his NFL career.

“Football is football. The only thing I feel behind is questioning my physicality, which I don’t,” Stewart said. “Questioning my football ability, which I don’t. Of course, there are days when I feel like I’m being beaten, but at the end of the day, that’s football.”

“I still have a lot of work to do, and I can’t wait to make it happen,” the 17th overall rookie draft pick said.  ( kuiper999 )

Verse’s first season, which ended with him winning Defensive Rookie of the Year and making the Pro Bowl, showed signs of progress in his first year, but the 24-year-old still has a lot of work to do to reach the level of Rams legend Donald, who has mentored and challenged him in the past. 

“I can tell you he’s a psychopath,” Worse said of Donald. “I had to take another off-season to get over it. It was terrible.” 

“I’ve done a lot of different workouts. I’ve worked with hundreds of people, the best NFL players, the best college players. That was the hardest workout I’ve ever done.” 

‘Not even close. Like, you know those bad times in college? It’s nothing.’ 

Donald is an all-time great, having a 10-year career that included three Defensive Player of the Year awards, eight All-Pro selections, and 10 Pro Bowl appearances. ( kuiper999 )
