41 Quotes by Jeremy Bloom

Watching John Elway in Colorado, that goal was actually born before skiing. But the NFL is such a business. Obviously, I would LOVE to play for the Broncos, but I would also love to play for anyone who drafts me.

One thing that I feel like I have been able to do is transition between those two sports very easily.

Obviously, I wanted to win the gold medal. But not everyone can reach the pinnacle of your career on the last day you compete. Not everyone can go out like John Elway.

I don't know the correct way to classify the feeling I had after I wasn't playing football anymore. There are 5,000 fans watching on a good day in skiing. In football, it's 16 games a year and it's bigger than the Olympics as far as the fans. It was something I really missed doing.

Catching the football for me is instinctual. I've been catching the football and I can catch the football. That's natural for me and that's not a problem. My speed, I'll continue to get faster and I'll continue to get stronger.

There aren't a lot of egos on this team.

I would think as long as I'm playing, I wouldn't be skiing. I want to be running routes all year long. I would want to be training for football all year, which I've never done.

I went into this thing thinking I would not get drafted and do it through free agency. I tried to lower the expectation when things were out of my control like they were today. All I can do now is show up in Philadelphia and bring my work ethic and work as hard as I can.

I think there are elements I'll be lacking here. My route running, I'll have to work on. Catching the football, I can catch the football. And my speed, I'll have to work on that, too.
