On his Super Bowl interception:
"To play against a great team...growing up watching the 49ers play - huge fan of Jerry Rice & Ronnie Lott." "...grew up loving Bill Walsh, to get an interception was like the icing on the cake & in the hometown, and then win it - I can't explain it, I'm still in the moment."

On the Ravens Super Bowl win:
"It's fate, it's a blessing...Baltimore feels it, because it's something we've been working for. It's one thing to talk about something, it's another thing to believe in it & work for it.

"That was awesome, to see everybody out there. I was trying to wave at every person. There was so much joy & we did it together."

On his home being broken into in Baltimore, while he was in New Orleans for the Super Bowl:
"It happened. (the Super Bowl) it's bigger than the little things that happen to us. So many people got to touch the trophy & be part of it & we were part of it with them. That's what we need more of."
