1. You're a kicker. What made you choose this over being a punter or offensive lineman>

2. Has anyone ever told you kickers aren't really part of the team? How do you feel?

3. Would you be upset if a team kept going for it on 4th down because you were too terrible to hit a field goal?

4. What's worse: Kick offs out of bounds or missing field goals?

5. Are you happy that people know you only as some trick shot artist and not an actually effective football kicker?

1. I was never big enough to play on the offensive line. I can play punter, but I prefer to play under the pressure you receive as a kicker.

2. I have heard this before, and it never changes my opinion. Kickers are a vital part of any football team. Hundreds of games have been decided by last minute or overtime field goals.

3. I don't envision this ever happening.

4. Any botched kick is a bad thing. I would have to say missing field goals is worse.

5. It doesn't matter what people know me for. The only thing that does matter is that I get the job done.
