Le'Veon Bell

I practice so hard, Sundays are easy.

I want to continue to grow, and as long as I keep going out there doing what I'm doing and don't fall off from what I've learned already as they keep adding things on, I'll be fine.

For me, I just like to play respectable football.

I just don't like when guys come and do dirty plays.

If I only get eight carries, and we win the game, I'm fine with that.

I'm not really worried about how many carries I get or anything, I just want to make sure we win the game. So if I need 50 carries to win the game, I'm going to get it.

I can't take nothing for granted. I have to really protect myself - either get out of bounds or continue to finish the play.

As fresh as I can be in the games, the better.

I want to make sure I do everything in my power to be a better teammate and player.

I just feel like I try to get out of each game healthy.

Being in my rhythm, I can never tell whether I got 15 carries or 25 carries. It's never really a difference to me. I just go out and play.

I feel like a lot of runners in the NFL: the more they get the ball, the more they get into a rhythm.

If you just play your game, the stats will come.

I always feel like I can play better.

It was never a thing that bothered me, being cold or if there's snow. It never fazed me.

I just feel like the way that I play, you know, I'm such a patient runner that a lot of people look at me as slow. But I'm not a slow guy.

Oh man, I think Damian Lillard makes good music. He has bars.

When I used to drop the ball, it was because of concentration, trying to run before I caught the ball.

I want to be the best that I can be because I want to win a Super Bowl.

Drake is one of my favorite artists, so it would definitely be a honor to make a track with him.

I don't want to go out there and jeopardize myself getting hurt in camp.

I have a chef for my main meals, but when he's not there, rather than go to the store and grab chips, I will eat grapes or a banana or egg whites.

It is okay to play tough and try to hit guys hard in the course of the play - that's fine - but I don't like unnecessary roughness or things that happen after the play.

The first album that I bought with my own money was 50 Cent's 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'.' That was, like, the 5th grade, 6th grade.

I just know when I'm on the sideline, I can't expect somebody to push me out of bounds.

I work out with my trainer; he knows my body to a T. He knows the things that I'm great at, and he knows the things I'm not necessarily great at, and he'll try to help those things.

I've always been a stubborn kid.

It's about leaving a legacy. People will always remember what you did. That's why I run the way I run.

I don't necessarily care about the money aspect of it. I just want to be valued where I'm at. If I am playing this game, I want to set standards for all the other running backs behind me, like Todd Gurley and Ezekiel Elliott, Melvin Gordon, guys like that.

I've made a lot of money, I'm happy where I'm at. I've got a good family - I don't really need to play football.

I feel like I wanted to run differently than everybody else did. And I want to do things that everybody else hasn't done.

I'm not a guy who will budge off how I feel about my work.

I know, when I'm 30 or 31 years old, I know I'll be productive because I don't depend solely on my athletic ability to get open and get yards. It's more my mind.

I gotta go play with people who want to see me succeed, who want me to be great.

I used to go to Dairy Queen all the time. It always brings back a little bit of memories. As kids, we always used to go get ice cream.

Quarterbacks are leaders; it is what it is.

What I've been doing over the course of my career - everybody's been seeing me be my best self.

I don't let people doubt me.

If I have 38 touches and we win the game, that's enough. If I have 38 touches and we lose, then I didn't get enough.

I always try to find something to motivate me to be a better player.

I always want to find something to get you to play with a chip on your shoulder.

I don't want to just be the guy to dump the ball off to or the guy who can do the checkdowns.

I love being a running back. But I really love being a football player.

I used to be more of a bruiser. I wanted to run through people. Now I try to run around them.

I run my routes like a crossover dribble. It's about taking angles, faking one way but going the other, and being savvy. And then, instead of running to the basket, I'm running away from the defender.

I don't think I should settle for anything less than what I'm valued at.

I take pride in staying in the game.

I just think my work ethic really shows.

I don't think there are a lot of backs who can do the things that I can do.
