Vincent D'Onofrio has been "introverted [his] whole life".
The 65-year-old actor has enjoyed huge success during his career, starring in shows such as 'Daredevil' and 'Hawkeye' - but Vincent has only recently learned the importance of celebrating his own triumphs.
Asked to reveal the last thing he's learned about himself, Vincent told PEOPLE: "I’ve been introverted my whole life, so everything I do is an effort to break that way of living. I’m still learning that I can put myself out there and celebrate when I accomplish things."
Vincent has also confessed to being superstitious.
The Hollywood star - who has daughter Leila, 33, and sons Elias, 25, and Luka, 17 - shared: "The new one is if you’re walking with a loved one, you don’t let anything get between you. Like you don’t pass on either side of a pole, you go the same way. It’s supposed to be good luck."
Meanwhile, Vincent previously insisted that fame and success hasn't changed how he approaches his work.
The actor tries to find a healthy balance between his work life and his family life.
He told Yahoo: "I just think that if people are being controlled by their boss or the powers that be to work more than they should, really, for the money they earn, or at the expense of their life outside of work, I really don't like that.
"I'll speak for myself: I have the same work ethic as I did when I got paid nothing to act as I do when I get paid good to act. My ethic doesn't change. And the idea of somebody trying to get more than they deserve from me, in an amount of hours during the day? The other half of my life is too important to avoid."

Steelers Can Take Advantage Of Reported 'Fire Sale' In AFC And Target Stud Wide Receiver
The Pittsburgh Steelers are a team that has been reported to be looking to acquire talent ahead of the NFL's trade deadline on November 4th. Pittsburgh has already brought in safety Kyle Dugger from the New England Patriots, and the franchise could be looking to add some more talent, especially on the offensive side of the football. Wide receiver has been a position of discussion for many fans, as Calvin Austin III and Roman Wilson being the next options behind DK Metcalf has not felt like a great idea through the first seven games of the year. The Steelers have been rumored to land pretty much any disgruntled wide receiver over the last two seasons. The only big acquisition at the position has been Metcalf, which was a trade that seemingly came out of nowhere in the 2025 offseason. With the deadline approaching, Pittsburgh has some options, including wide receiver Jaylen Waddle of the Miami Dolphins. Miami mutually separated with General Manager Chris Grier on Friday, which should mark the start of a fire sale. This was recently pointed out by analyst Matt Miller. The Dolphins fell to 2-7 after losing to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night, and that marks the end of Grier's time with the organization, as he started back in 2000 as a scout for the franchise. Miami was trying to turn things around in the 2025 season before officially becoming "sellers," but the seventh loss of the year and the dismissal of a general manager usually means trades are coming. The Dolphins have said they do not want to deal Waddle, but that was prior to Grier and the organization parting ways. That, plus a lost season completely changes things, and Waddle could absolutely get moved for the right price. Miami will now have to hire a new general manager during the 2026 offseason, and the franchise has to be sure it is doing everything possible to set the new executive up for success. That means acquiring some draft capital via trade, while also clearing up some cap space. Moving Waddle would bring in significant draft capital while also getting his contract off of the books. He is currently signed through the 2028 season with a cap hit of over $30 million in each of the last two years on the deal. The franchise should certainly consider getting rid of him to free up some cap space. This franchise is in a rough spot at the moment, and a fire sale could help propel them forward. A true rebuild is coming for Miami, so it is likely time to start setting up for the future. Steelers' Omar Khan Needs To At Least Inquire With The Miami Dolphins Pittsburgh Steelers General Manager Omar Khan needs to at least reach out to Miami as the franchise could be seen as a bit vulnerable with an interim general manager stepping in. Waddle should be at the top of Pittsburgh's wish list, but there are some other players in Miami that might be worth acquiring as well. There is a trio of edge rushers that could be moved, and that might not be a bad idea for Pittsburgh as the team somehow lacks a pass rush. Khan has been great at negotiating ever since stepping into his current role, and it might be beneficial if he can start swapping offers with the stand-in GM in Miami. The two franchises have already done business this year when they swapped some late-round picks, along with Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith for Minkah Fitzpatrick.
Logical trade targets if the Vikings decide to buy before the trade deadline
While a loss Sunday in Detroit could turn Minnesota into a seller before Tuesday's NFL trade deadline, a win would get them to 4-4 and perhaps entice them to be a buyer. If they do wind up acquiring help before the trade deadline, who are some logical targets? For that, we need to look at the teams most likely to be selling and find out which players at positions of need — cornerback and perhaps edge rusher — Minnesota could target. We also need to keep in mind that draft capital is a premium. Here's what the Vikings have in the 2026 draft cupboard: 1st round 2nd round 3rd round 5th fround (from Philadelphia via the Sam Howell trade) 6th round (from Indianapolis via the Mekhi Blackmon trade) 7th round 7th round (from Houston via the 2024 Cam Akers trade) 7th round (from Carolina via the Adam Thielen trade) What are the Vikings most likely to do before the deadline? It doesn't sound like much. Alec Lewis, of The Athletic, says to "expect some tires to be kicked, but don’t bank on an addition or subtraction, barring a serious injury." NFL Network's Tom Pelissero doesn't "see them going out and making a massive type of acquisition," but he says he could "see them having interest" in the edge rusher market. SI's Albert Breer says the Vikings are "among a list of teams looking for corners." So, let's see what the likely sellers might have available at cornerback and edge. Cleveland Browns: Myles Garrett (not logical) All signs point to the Browns keeping Garrett, so this is probably a waste of time to even consider. If they did open the door for a trade, it would cost an ungodly amount, including multiple first-round picks and perhaps some talented players. Cleveland hasn't had any cornerbacks mentioned in the rumor mills. Las Vegas Raiders: Eric Stokes Stokes would be a massive upgrade at cornerback for the Vikings, who lack depth behind Byron Murphy Jr. and Isaiah Rodgers. Stokes shouldn't cost a ton because he's on a one-year, $3.5 million contract. There's no guarantee that he re-signs with the Raiders, so Vegas might be smart to trade him now, rather than losing him for nothing in free agency. Stokes ranked No. 38 in PFF coverage grades for cornerbacks, having allowed 10 receptions on 19 targets for 123 yards. Quarterbacks have a 72.9 passer rating when throwing into Stokes' coverage, which puts him among the top 30 in the NFL this season. Maimi Dolphins: Bradley Chubb, Jaelan Phillips, Matthew Judon Chubb, Phillips and Judon would could be upgrades over Dallas Turner on the edge. But does Minnesota really want to trade for an edge rusher when Andrew Van Ginkel is about to return to the lineup? It's only a need if Van Ginkel is expected to miss more time. Phillips: 3 sacks, 32 pressures, PFF's 15th-ranked pass rusher at EDGE Chubb: 3 sacks, 21 pressures, PFF's 101st-ranked pass rusher at EDGE Judon: 0 sacks, 5 pressures, PFF's 116th-ranked pass rusher at EDGE Breer is hearing that it could take a third-round pick to get Phillips. New Orleans Saints: Alontae Taylor Taylor would be an upgrade in the cornerback room, but Breer says the Saints are asking for a second or third-round pick for him. The 2022 second-round pick is due to become a free agent, so it would only make sense for Minnesota to give up a quality draft pick for him if they can sign him to an extension. According to PFF, Taylor has the 31st-best coverage grade among cornerbacks, putting him just ahead of Jets star Sauce Gardner. New York Giants: Kayvon Thibodeaux Mike Garafolo reported this week that the Giants are telling interested teams no, but Thibodeaux appears to be the odd man out in New York with Brian Burns and Abdul Carter starting on the edges. He's under contract through 2026, so it might take a Day 2 pick to get him. Should the Vikings offer a third-rounder next year to shore up the edge? Thibodeaux has 2.5 sacks and 25 pressures this season, while ranking 49th among edge rushers via PFF's grades. He had just 5.5 sacks last year, but he posted an 11.5-sack season in 2023, which is what the Giants thought they were getting when they drafted him fifth overall in 2022. Washington Commanders: Noah Igbinoghene Igbinoghene might be the player that makes the most sense for Minnesota because he'd only cost them a late-round draft pick. He's a player who was on the field for 75% of Washington's snaps last season, but roster changes have led to him spending most of this season on the bench, having played a total of 40 defense snaps in 2025. The issue here is that he's best-suited for the slot, and the Vikings need someone who can fill the void of Jeff Okudah (concussions) on the outside. More from Vikings On SI
Steelers' Jabrill Peppers drops bold statement about reuniting with Kyle Dugger
The Pittsburgh Steelers now have the New England Patriots' starting safety duo from the last couple of seasons. The organization signed Jabrill Peppers after he was cut at the end of training camp, and the franchise just completed a deal to acquire Kyle Dugger from New England via trade. The trade was necessary as Pittsburgh just lost starting safety DeShon Elliott for a minimum of four games as he was placed on injured reserve with a hyperextended knee. He could miss the rest of the season, which means Dugger could be playing a big role for Pittsburgh throughout the rest of the regular season. Jabrill Peppers offers take on reunion with Kyle Dugger The Steelers were able to acquire Dugger for a pretty cheap deal, as all it took was a late-round pick swap. The organization was also able to wipe out the remaining years on his contract, and New England is taking on most of the money for the remainder of the 2025 season. It is a bargain deal for Pittsburgh that could have a ton of upside. Peppers is likely moving into the starting lineup for the Steelers on Sunday as they will take on the Indianapolis Colts, and it is expected that Peppers and Dugger will be the main safety duo for the franchise moving forward. Peppers spoke with Jim Wexell of "The Steel City Insider" about what he and Dugger can do at safety. He was asked about either player's flexibility when it came to strong safety and free safety, and the veteran had a clear message. "We both play safety," Peppers said. "Just watch the tape. Watch the tape." Whenever a new acquisition is made, fans immediately jump to conclusions, trying to figure out where certain players fit in and how it affects the rest of the roster. In this instance, it seems pretty clear that both Peppers and Dugger can line up at either safety position and be effective. Peppers spoke of the safety style in New England, and he said that it was just left and right. So, that is probably how the two will approach things in Pittsburgh. Peppers and Dugger played together in New England for three seasons, and the two started alongside one another for most of that time. That is expected to happen for the Steelers as soon as Dugger gets himself acclimated to the team and the defensive system. The deal was made official on Thursday, so the newly acquired safety will have two days of practice and a walkthrough on Saturday. That could be enough for him to see the field a little bit against the Colts on Sunday. Further on in the year, Dugger should become more and more of a contributor within the defense. That is great news for fans, as it didn't seem like the Steelers made much of an effort last year to get their acquisitions at the trade deadline involved. That shouldn't be the case for Dugger, as the defense is seriously struggling, especially on the back end. Steelers could see communication issues on Sunday It is sometimes difficult for a secondary to communicate with one another on game days, especially when there are new pieces being inserted into the lineup. Peppers is new to the starting lineup, and Dugger is new to the team. It is unclear how much he will play, if at all, but that will create its own set of challenges. Another contributing issue to communication on defense will be the crowd noise. It is a home game for Pittsburgh, but that means the home crowd will be loud when the opposing team is on offense. That makes life hard for the secondary as everyone in the group tries to get on the same page ahead of the snap. That will be something to watch, especially if Dugger plays.
'TNF' takeaways: Lamar Jackson dazzles in return as Ravens humiliate Dolphins
The Baltimore Ravens dominated the Miami Dolphins in a 28-6 rout on "Thursday Night Football" as quarterback Lamar Jackson shined in his return from injury. Here are four takeaways from the first NFL game of Week 9: Lamar Jackson returns in style You would never know that Jackson had not played since Week 4 judging by his incredible performance on Thursday night. He wasted no time getting started with this fourth-down strike to tight end Mark Andrews in the opening quarter and capped his four-TD night with a nine-yard connection to wide receiver Rashod Bateman late in the third quarter. His 18 total TD passes against the Dolphins are the second-most all-time in five games vs. one opponent, only behind George Blanda's 21 against the New York Titans. After going 18-of-23 for 204 yards and four TDs, Jackson now has 14 passing TDs and only one interception in five games. If he stays healthy, this Ravens team will be difficult to slow down in the second half of the season. Mike McDaniel's seat keeps getting hotter It keeps getting worse for the Dolphins head coach after Thursday's latest dud. Miami had 332 yards of offense, but went 0-for-3 in the red zone and committed three turnovers, including a brutal one in their own territory in the first quarter. During a pregame segment on Prime Video, NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport was asked what McDaniel's future looks like in Miami and said his job status is "firmly up in the air." While he said he did not "see anything imminent" from owner Stephen Ross, it will come down to how the players respond going forward. Although he signed an extension prior to last season and is under contract through 2028, a 2-7 record and another blowout loss is doing nothing to help McDaniel's case at the moment. Kyle Hamilton spearheads strong defensive performance from Ravens The Ravens entered the night allowing the third-most points per game (30 PPG), but Thursday night was a much different story. The All-Pro safety Hamilton may have not had the most tackles on the team, but his impact was certainly felt with six total tackles and one tackle for loss. He was more impressive than the stats show, especially at creating pressure on Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa and keeping Miami from having any success between the tackles. In the first quarter alone, Hamilton did not even line up as a safety in his first 15 snaps and still only gave up one yard rushing on four carries, opposed to 31 yards on three carries away from him, per Next Gen Stats. For a team that has struggled defensively, they need more of what they got on Thursday night if they are going to claw their way back into the AFC North conversation. Don't count the Ravens out yet It was not that long ago that Baltimore was 1-5 and staring at a wasted season. After back-to-back wins, an improving 3-5 record and a sloppy AFC North in which the Pittsburgh Steelers (4-3) are the only team above .500, the Ravens are firmly in the hunt. In fact, FanDuel currently lists them as the favorites (-145) to win the division as of Thursday night. The defense still needs to prove itself against stiffer competition, but if Jackson continues to ball out, the Ravens could complete a remarkable turnaround and mix up the AFC playoff picture.
