We are going to effectively try to get him to be able to come back in the best possible condition and the best game readiness he can be in.
We want to support every player, and I think every player knows he has a responsibility for what to do and what not to do. As a coach, I also feel a responsibility to put a player in the best situation possible so he can have success.
We are going to try to get him to be able to come back in the best possible condition and the best game readiness he can be in.
This is not something etched in stone until the league makes a ruling. But we plan to give ourselves the best possible plan.
We tried to put ourselves in a position that that wouldn't be a factor for us right now.
We tried to create a little bit of an identity as a team today. I'm proud of the effort that we put in and the way we persevered and overcame adversity. The big thing that this team did today was they had a little tenacity, a little perseverance.

We missed a couple of throws and had a couple of turnovers and we need to get that corrected.
We have to do it, have success doing it, and then do it again,
We went ahead and took the guy we could get. If the opportunity presents itself to get a quality, young quarterback in the draft, we will do it.
We certainly feel both those players are capable. Sometimes when you play corner I think it's very important that you play with confidence and do the things you need to do technique-wise.
