Reporter: So how has the transition been so far after moving to Miami from Africa?
LeCharles Jackson: It takes a little bit of getting used to but I was born in the inner cities of Miami so it was more like a homecoming for me.
Reporter: What do you feel that you bring to the Hurricanes as a player? Do you feel that your 2 Superbowl rings will help you out here?
LJ: Definitely. I believe I'll bring veteran experience and leadership to a talented group of guys.
Reporter: What do you think of your teammates and the competition here compared to Africa?
LJ: As for the competition, it's not going to be much different. I'm going to continue to shutdown receivers like I did in Africa and make quarterbacks throw to his other options. Except over here in Miami, his other options will probably be a check down pass to his running backs...
Reporter: Really? That's some strong words there. Could you clarify some more?
LJ: Well, da U ain't da U if it ain't for the superstar players it churns out on defense. Reed, Taylor, Phillips, Rolle, Hester - I mean good DBs are what the U is all about. This year, we probably have the best DB tandem in the league and probably the best DB group ever seen in BBB#11. I got my cousin DeAndre, the fastest man in BBB, starting on my other side and we all saw how he did last year, 11 picks and 3 defensive touchdowns. My other cousin D'Quell has always been the best strong safety in the league, and this offseason, he's gotten leaner and faster. He could probably play cornerback and get 11 picks for himself. And we also got my boy LaDarius, who's the best nickelback there is getting himself 2 defensive TDs last year. We've also got safety Philo who literally kills guys on the field. And finally, we've just brought in a shutdown FS Jon who's going to be the next Reed.
Reporter: Haha, so how many yards to you expect opposing offenses to pass on you guys?
LJ: Well, let's see, 0 my way, 0 DeAndre's way, you probably have to check the ball down the whole game, but we Miami is also known for our fast hard hitting LBs...so...Ima just say you should just run the ball all game and play it safe. Coaches always say going three and out isn't as bad as having a turnover.
Reporter: haha, alright thanks for your time.
