Football Quote by Cordarrelle Patterson
“We're all receivers, we make catches, we do all those little things, but sometimes you've got to separate yourself from others and do some things others won't do. So as receivers, we have to go out there and block. We all know we can catch but that's what we do - separate ourselves by doing a hell of a job blocking.”
