Marc Trestman Quotations

We've expanded a little bit. We're still not as evolved as we were early on in the first three or four games with Jay.

It did surprise me to hear that. I really thought and still think he could be developed into a very good quarterback. When I went to see Nick at the end of the year, I told him the same thing.

It's obvious the guys did a lot of work. And Jay is out there just living his dream, playing quarterback at a Division I-A college.

You can see he is extremely athletic. He's a smart kid, he moves around well, and he's got some raw ability.

You don't go into it with the idea that you're trying to please anybody. You're trying to move the football and score touchdowns.

They're both really good backs. They both deserve to play.

He has the greatest understanding of the offense. He's got excellent hands, and he's got great running ability as well.

It was just a very unusual season last year. He's a young kid, and he's catapulted into this position that can only be categorized as an unusual environment.

What I do for myself stays within me, what I do for others lasts a lifetime.

Football became my obvious metaphor as it does for many, and I began to equate this as being 'halftime' in my life. As I reflected on my professional life I realized how much time I had spent trying to make first downs and score touchdowns. My focus had now changed into trying to be more about people and serving others.
