Bubba Franks Quotations

We know we're not that far out of it, but all we're concerned with is winning games. And that's going to happen one game at a time,

One thing you can point out, even through all the losses, we were getting better every game. Now, we have something to build on.

I didn't really get a chance to catch a Brett Favre pass, ... I had to kind of get used to that.

I don't have any concerns. It's all on (the doctors). They have to do their evaluation a little bit more, and then we'll see what happens. I'm ready to play, but will they let me? That's the only thing that would be holding me back.

I didn't want to be one of those players who bounced from team to team, changing jersey colors, jersey numbers. I started here and I wanted to finish here. Now, I want to win here.

He'll bounce back. It will make him stronger as a person. Mentally, he'll be focused. He'll come back a lot stronger than what he was. He's going to concentrate on that knee so much he'll have to strengthen those muscles in both legs. I see him coming back faster and stronger.

I was more concentrating on making sure that I got my steps down, that my routes were looking all right. I wasn't worried about getting a ball. I just wanted to get back in the swing of things and get all the anxiety out.

There haven't been any talks really. And I don't know what's going to happen.

To me it was more than a walk-through. I had to do a little more conditioning after practice to show the coaches I was in shape, which was no problem for me. I kind of took this as a mini-practice because everyone else was walking through (plays) and I'm the only guy running routes. It was fun. It was exciting to be back.

It's just a matter of time before I get back, ... And it'll be interesting then.

I'm not going to get used to that role,

I'm in pretty good shape. As far as football shape, I don't know. Football shape is totally different from just running all day, but we'll see.

Before all is said and done, I want to be known as the best tight end in Packers' history, hands down. Actually, I want to be known as the best tight end in the NFL. It's just a matter of being put in the right situation. Hopefully, we can get things started in the right direction this year.

Hopefully, with this new contract, that will change things. You can't have certain guys out there just out there to do nothing.

I didn't really care how many snaps they let me go in. I wasn't worried about that. My only focus was to get a win at any cost. ... But I'm not going to get used to that role.

I could actually go through a game right now, ... Would I want to? Probably not. But I have enough to go.
