THIS AND THAT

You worked part-time at a juvenile facility when you were in college. Is that something you'd continue to pursue after football? "I definitely want to venture into something like that. My degree sent me that way. I like doing that. But you never know. High school football, college football, coaching or something. Those are probably the two things that I'd like to do."

You scored your first career touchdown against New England last season. How fulfilling was that? "It felt good to get a touchdown. At the moment it was kind of just like 'scored another touchdown.' But then later on everybody was reminding me that I scored my first (NFL) touchdown. Then I guess the meaning really came to me. But we were getting beat at the time so that really took away a lot of the spark from it."

What did you do with the ball? "I had spiked it and it went up into the stands. (Former Dolphin wide receiver) O.J. McDuffie caught it and gave it back to me. So it was pretty good."

You've been up and down the east side of the country so far in your NFL career. You started in New England and then you were traded to Pittsburgh, and now you're here in Miami. Do you feel like you've finally found a home here? "I hope so. I like the guys on the team. Obviously this is the best situation for me and I feel like I've found a place down here."

You've picked up golf as an off the field hobby. How's your game? "Yeah I like playing golf. I love it. It's a big hobby of mine in the offseason. I try and get out and play. My game gets a little shaky at times. But I love playing. I like playing in scrambles and tournaments."
