SCENE 3 – ULTIMATE TEAMMATE.<br />

“The thing about Ray is a lot of people see what they see on Sundays, but in all actuality, he’s quiet. On<br />

Sundays, he’s not quiet. But the thing about him is he goes about his business as far as learning and<br />

game preparation. When it comes to that he’s about as serious as anyone I’ve ever known.” –PH<br />

“He’s all about making plays and helping the team win. He went through that in college, won a National<br />

Championship and it’s something he is used to. Talking to him, it’s something he expects. In the past he’s<br />

said, ‘I’ve never dealt with a losing team or season or situation.’ Just the way he handles it, he expects to<br />

win and doesn’t celebrate when it happens.” –JS<br />

“I’m real thankful. In my career I’ve been surrounded by guys who were older and were willing to teach<br />

me tidbits the game has. Justin, he’s been doing it since he’s been here. You don’t have to, but he’s been<br />

like the angel on my shoulder I guess for the past four years. And Jimmy’s (Tomsula) on my other<br />

shoulder. Jimmy’s a great guy, I love Jimmy. When he called me on draft day and told me he was going<br />

to bring me in, I already knew what I was in store for. I knew what kind of guy he was when I met him at<br />

the combine and he’s the same guy every day. He’s a good guy, who will always give it to you straight.<br />

He’s a hard worker. You want to be around guys like that.” –RM<br />

“Quiet. Low-key. Dominant force on the field. If you ever met him or had the opportunity to meet him,<br />

you’d never think he was as explosive or as dominant as he is, he’s not very vocal. He doesn’t say too<br />

much, but he has that little look that he’s ready to work every day.” –TB<br />

SCENE 4 – NO SACK DANCE NECESSARY.<br />

“He’s extremely quiet until you get him going on something. But yeah, he’s extremely comfortable with<br />

silence which I find odd, but whatever.” –JS<br />

“I don’t really have a sack dance – I don’t. I feel like celebrations are made for after the game. If you<br />

celebrate by yourself, you’re kind of glorifying yourself and I’m not really with that. I’d rather celebrate with<br />

my teammates and come up with some kind of dance with them than try to glorify myself – I’d rather wait<br />

until after the game to celebrate.” –RM<br />

“I told him he doesn’t have rhythm. Ray can get up and walk back to the huddle looking real hard, but him<br />

having a sack dance? No. Ray has no rhythm. I can say that hands-down.” –RJF<br />

“You always have respect for those type of guys because they’re blue-collar guys. They come in every<br />

day and just work. They don’t want recognition; they just want to do their jobs and be solid and just keep<br />

being a force on the field. You always praise those guys when you get an opportunity because they’re not<br />

going to do it themselves.” –TB<br />

SCENE 5 – FRANK SINATRA.<br />

“I could say I’m pretty plain, but I’m open to things. I listen to different music.” –RM.<br />

“What do I know about Ray? I know he listens to Frank Sinatra.” –PH<br />

“I’d say I became a fan about three years ago. This older dude I used to hang out with showed it to me. I<br />

had heard of Frank Sinatra before, but he played a few songs and I took a liking to it.” –RM<br />

“Ray shocked me, he was playing music one day and he played Frank Sinatra. He shocked me. When he<br />

had that playing, that opened my eyes about Ray. I thought he was not the type of guy to play music like<br />

that, but he shocked me when he played that music.” –RJF
