How would you describe your personality and how that plays into who you are?) – “Full of life. I’m just happy to be where I’m at right now and I want to win.” I’m not trying to be disrespectful, but I’m just not really trying to figure out why I got traded. I’m not trying to go into this and figure out maybe if I would’ve done this different, if I was … I don’t know. I’m just grateful that I have the opportunity to continue to play football and that’s what I definitely want to do.

I’m not going to sit up here and try to figure out why it happened the way it happened. kind of led to this? You obviously had been with Jeff Fisher for a long time.) – “I’m not sure what led to it, but I’m okay with whatever led to it. (Do you think the change of the coaching staff in L.A. (Do you have any friends on the Dolphins roster?) – “Not now but hopefully in the next couple of weeks I’ll have couple of friends. I just want to come in and fill that role that’s needed and help lead the team in a way that it’s probably already been led.” I’m not trying to come in here and change the culture or try to do anything amazing. I want to come in and create an image and when guys see a guy come in, work hard and bring his lunch pail to work every day, but also have fun at the same time. I think I’m pretty good from a leadership role. (How would you describe your game? What are your specific strengths?) – “The run. Hopefully, I can come in and help make the team a little bit better.” This team is on the incline and it’s only going to get better.

How important at this stage of your career is making a playoff run, making a Super Bowl run?) – “It’s huge. I don’t know how many winning teams you’ve been a part of. (I’m going to be) the guy that can come in and just help fill in the holes as needed.” Cam is an exceptional football player and whatever way I can fit in to help better the team, I’m going to be that guy, the role player. (With DE Cameron Wake and DE Andre Branch here, how do you view your role?) – “Whatever role they want me to play.

But I was maybe 10 minutes away from taking a flight here and probably signing (with the Dolphins).” and I guess I chose to continue to go with the coach (Jeff Fisher) I knew. (How close did you come to signing with the Dolphins last offseason?) – “Very close. I think if it was anybody else, I probably would’ve been a little bit more bummed but I’m excited to get the opportunity to play for (Head) Coach (Adam Gase) and hopefully help this team any way I can.”

I felt like it was a team that wanted me last year during free agency and for them to still have interest in me again, it wasn’t the worst feeling in the world. (How would you describe your reaction to being traded to the Dolphins?) – “Nothing really surprises you in this league, but I got excited.
