Oakland Raiders defensive back DJ Hayden has revealed that he is planning to play without fear in the 2015 season.
The Raiders selected the 25-year-old with the 12th overall pick in the 2013 Draft, but he has struggled to make an impact in his first two seasons at the club.
Hayden has admitted that his fear of making errors held back his playmaking instincts, but he has vowed to find his form in the 2015 campaign.
"My mindset this year I am just going full-force," Hayden told reporters. "Whether I make a mistake or not, I am going to do it full speed.
"Last year, I was hesitant about making mistakes. This year, I don't give a damn."
Hayden has recorded 72 tackles and two interceptions in his first two years in the NFL.
