Offensive Lineman A.J. Cann can carry a tune, enjoys horseback riding and discussed bear hibernation with Drew Dougherty.

1) DD: How’s the horseback riding been?
CANN: Good, so far. The first time on it, I wasn’t so sure about it. But now, I might have to get my get myself one someday.

2) DD: Really? It was that enjoyable for you?
CANN: Well, more so for my kids, man. My daughter and my son really loved it and I was teasing my wife about it. I’m pretty sure if I get the one, I’m gonna have to be riding it.

3) DD: Which which would you rather be: a bear that gets to hibernate or a caterpillar that turns into a butterfly?
CANN: I probably would like to be a bear that gets to hibernate, man, because they get some good sleep. Being an athlete, you have to get good rest.

4) DD: You grew up in South Carolina, played college ball for the Gamecocks. You spent awhile in Jacksonville with the Jaguars. Now you’re here. Those are all hot places. How do you beat the heat?
CANN: Drinking as much as you can. Hydrating. But I guess I’m just kind of used to it now. Been raised in it from South Carolina, drafted to a hot place in Jacksonville. Now I’m continuing my career here in Houston where it’s hot. So I would say I’m kind of used to it by now.
