Here are his best quotes:
FLORHAM PARK — The CBS news program "60 Minutes" is scheduled to air a segment on Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis on Sunday night.
The segment, reported by Armen Keteyian, promises a glimpse into Revis' world, including a visit to his hometown of Aliquippa, Pa., and to the camp in Arizona where Revis trains each summer.
Via CBS, here are a few Revis quotes that are expected to air during the segment:
• On the definition of "Revis Island"? "It's some place that receivers do not want to go. We bring you over. We boat you back too. It's a vacation."
• On whether he is the NFL's best cornerback: "I don't even get into that, but my stats and all of that stuff speaks for itself. And ... the film doesn't lie."
• On his lifestyle, despite roughly $100 million in career earnings: "I'm a laid-back guy. ... I'm very simple, it's simplicity with me. Everything else ... the 10 cars or the 20 cars is ... that's ludicrous."
• On his willingness to maximize his earning potential: "You got to be willing to take risk. I have five contracts in seven years. That's ... never heard of. If you're the best, you should expect to get paid—to be the best."
The "60 Minutes" segment on Revis is slated to air Sunday night at 7:30 p.m. (EDT).
