You have to be equal at both - great at football and great at dedicating yourself to the academics at Notre Dame. It's hard. There are no rooty-toot classes for athletes in South Bend. Justin Tuck academicathletebend Change image and share on social
God has a plan for everybody's life, so there was obviously a reason why He wanted me to go to Notre Dame. Everything happens for a reason. Justin Tuck damegodlife Change image and share on social
I just want to continue to play great football - that's all that matters. I don't really care about the accolades or any of that. Justin Tuck accoladecarecontinue Change image and share on social
It's funny, because when I went down to the combine for the interviews with teams, Charles Haley is the name that came up a lot as a comparison to the way I play. A lot of people said that I reminded them of him, and that's a great honor. Justin Tuck charlecombinecomparison share on social
I used to like cufflinks, but I got too lazy for them. I realized I don't need them for a polished tailoring look, so more times than not, I skip them. Justin Tuck cufflinklazypolish Change image and share on social
I love rings, but I can't wear them. I mean, look at my knuckles. My fingers and joints are so swollen from years of playing. That means no wedding band, either. Luckily, I have a very understanding wife. Justin Tuck bandfingerjoint share on social
Everything to me is about team football, and if we keep winning Super Bowl trophies, I'll be fine. Justin Tuck bowlfinefootball Change image and share on social
Any time you have defensive ends going above you in the draft, when you know you put up numbers that were equal to better, you just have to use that as motivation. Whenever you're the underdog, you have to have the right attitude and just go out there and be yourself; just play. Justin Tuck attitudedefensivedraft share on social
As long as I feel the love of the game and my health is good, I'm going to play. I don't want to be one of these guys who stays too long or regrets leaving early. Football has been great to me. Justin Tuck earlyfeelfootball Change image and share on social
I know what I need to work on; I know my weaknesses, but I have that work ethic to improve every day. I have that want to be the best player at my position, and I have the belief in myself that one day that will come true. Justin Tuck beliefdayethic share on social
