December 2016: Guys Have To Be Ready To Play Every Single Game

"I sort of envy the NBA, the way they can sit guys for a game and even Major League Baseball. You look up and your name is not in the lineup that day because it's a day game after a night game or something. Football is not that way. We've got to give each game the respect that it deserves."

August 2017: Fletcher Cox Learning To Hit When Teams Pitch Around Him

"Let me put it this way, when offensive line coaches gameplan against us, I don't want to speak for them, but I'm sure they start with No. 91 and say, 'OK, how do we keep this guy from wrecking the game?' The next step to being a great player - and Fletch is - is being able to meet that and be able to still get a hit when they're pitching around you."

May 2017: Players Performances In The Spring Are No Different Than Spring Training

"You guys all know I'm a big baseball fan. I remember hearing Jim Palmer talk about - pitcher for the Orioles ... I'm sorry, some people need that - talk about Spring Training and he would have like a 10 ERA in Spring Training. I heard him speak at a banquet after that and he was like, 'Well, I threw nothing but curveballs that whole time,' or 'I threw nothing but change-ups. I was working on that pitch.' And it didn't matter to him. He had enough confidence. It didn't matter if he gave up six runs in an inning. He was working on individual things. Our guys are going through the same thing now. They're working on their individual skills. We're working as a defense to try to improve and add some new wrinkles and trying to bring all of that stuff together."

December 2017: Eagles Come Away With A Sloppy Win Over Giants, Looks Like A Clean Single In The Box Score

"The bottom line is somehow we were able to come out with a win. It didn't look pretty. Clean single in the bloop to right field. That's my last baseball analogy."

(Editor's Note: It was not his last baseball analogy.)

July 2017: Once Again, The Eagles Have Fresh Arms Coming Out Of The Bullpen On The D-Line

"The thing here is we rotate so many guys up front that you don't have to conserve your energy. You can play wide open, and you guys get tired of my baseball analogies, but I always compare it to guys coming out of the bullpen. You can throw a lot different if you're only throwing one inning than you can if you're a starter and you're out there for 100 pitches."
