Miami Dolphins wide reciever Jarvis Landry is the lone starter to return to the team from the 2014 season after Mike Wallace and Brian Hartline both left in the offseason. In his second season in the NFL, Landry looks to build off a successful rookie season and emerge as a budding star at the position.

As he gets ready for training camp, Landry had a question and answer session on Twitter and talked about what motivates him, how he got nicknamed 'Juice,' his mindset and what his favorite route to run is.

Below is a snapshot of several of the tweets from the question and answer session.

@EP_Finessin can't make any predictions, just make plays numbers will speak after.
