“Troy is different. He is not what people think of as your typical professional athlete.”
Chris Hope
“It's not about me, it's about Troy.”
Michael Irvin
“I was just a rookie, and I don't think Troy realized how fast I was. We've seen each other a lot since then [because Aikman broadcasts games for Fox], and we joke about the play, but you never want to hurt someone.”
LaVar Arrington
“I think there's a prototype we're all looking for, whether it's Brett Favre or Troy Aikman. And everyone's got that picture in their mind of the prototype at the position.”
Sean Payton
“I don't think Troy and I are that arrogant.”
Roger Staubach
“It's not easy to have valid comments over the course of a three-hour broadcast. But Troy knows what happened before the replay comes up. He leads us. He has valid comments and is opinionated. He's making his mark week by week.”
