It's difficult, but as a professional you just know that every chance you get you've got to make the most of it, ... If it's 10 carries a game or 12 carries a game, you've got to try and get the most amount of yards in those carries. If you catch the ball out of the backfield, you've got to make the most amount of yards out of those catches, as well.
