New Orleans Saints offensive guards/centers best quote from the 2021 season:
"I would definitely say that I look back on my first two years and realize how lucky I was because there's times where I should have been injured or I should have been hurt, that I just made it out alright, I guess because I was super young. And still young now. So yeah, it's a hard thing to do to play all the games. But it's definitely going to be a goal of mine each year. Just because the best ability is availability.” Center Erik McCoy
