Dad Quote by Mark Ingram II
“My dad was tough on me growing up so I got a strong mind, strong spirit. So my mom and my dad did a good job of bringing me up and preparing me for different things in life and showing me not just football but life. That's why I handled everything so well it's because of them.”
