"I like to make myself uncomfortable," Perryman, who signed a free agent contract with the Texans this offseason, admitted to ABC13. "That way, come game day, wherever we play - if it's hot outside, I'm ready for that."
Perryman, who is from Miami, said he's used to heat and humidity, but it's still something to which he has to acclimate his body.

Aside from warm-weather gear, ABC13 cameras also caught a unique accessory to Perryman's helmet. He wears custom painted visors, which is something he's done for six years.
"A lot of them just display how I'm feeling," Perryman pointed out. "This one is Deadpool."

Deadpool, the Marvel character, is known for being a skilled marksman and master assassin. Does Perryman channel Deadpool while playing linebacker?
"I like to," Perryman said, smiling. "If you've ever watched 'Deadpool,' he's a clown, but when it's time to get down to business, it's about business. And it's maximum effort - and that's how I play."
Perryman is a Pro Bowl linebacker, who spent the first eight years of his career with the Chargers and Raiders.
