"It's about respect and the morals and the value of life. And treat people how you want to be treated..." — A. J. Green

In elementary school, I didn't even play sports, I was just straight up on the juggling team. I started out with the floating scarves. Then I went to tennis balls and all that. Then by like the fourth grade I was doing the Chinese yo-yo. And I was good, man. I was like a master Chinese yo-yo person. I was top five Dead or Alive in South Carolina.

As an athlete, our platform is so high. A lot of people look up to us. So if they see us doing something positive, it can change the world.

My mom worked at Walmart for 33 years straight. Thirty-three years! Day in and day out.

My dad? He worked at a steel plant over in Charleston. Night shift. Nine at night to nine in the morning, no joke.
