It felt really good to contribute in that way, making that catch, especially being my first big play of the season.
But I’m just doing my job, you know.
We work hard in practice and it’s rewarding to come in and do something that helps the team out in a positive way.
It just shows our depth around here. We’re a pretty close group and we’re always keeping each other up and motivating each other. There’s lots of competition within, but it’s good competition and it makes us all better.
Everyone is ready to play, that’s why we’re here.
It’s getting to that time of the year when the body is getting tired and things happen, fatigue sets in. It’s just one of those things. You don’t want it to happen, but it’s the nature of the game sometimes.
So when a couple guys go down – nobody wants that to happen – so that’s obviously not how you want to get in, but I’ve just got to stay ready.
On the scout team, they tell you what to do, so it’s not mentally exhausting. I’m in my second year, so I’m getting the hang of things now. If you pay attention and lock in, you may not get the actual reps, but you can take the mental reps.
We’re a team that’s able to adapt and everyone knows what’s going on around here, so if something happens we just have to adjust and take it from there.
