 where does that go exactly well we have a contingency plan but you know not going to strategically share that you try to be try to have a plan so you're not unprepared yeah I mean there's a lot of different ways you know it's unfortunate obviously I say I can't say enough good things about him as a pro as a teammate really enjoyed you know one of the guys when I got here he's been really it bought in just having a good year it's unfortunate that's the kind of the crappy part about this his game and we all know the risk but it's still very unfortunate and so yeah so he won't be be around the rest of season now there's guys got stuff but there's a lot of ways to attack it not necessarily every time you got to go one-for-one when you have injuries when you've had to deal with them in the past whichever team does there's a lot of ways to do it we can have multiple guys step up there play different roles you may end up naturally evolving in something else and it could be a really good thing for you that's happened to me in the past certain positions when you've had injuries at tight ends guys roll grow and then you find out they actually can do more and you may kind of evolve into something else so we we feel good about the guys we got here and like I said they're gonna kick that ball off at 9 30 a.m. Eastern breakfast at Tottenham and we'll be ready to roll you know every's done a good job he's a guy that's gotten here he's a good football player certainly like all of us you know there's play calls I want back there certain plays I'm sure he wants back but he's a rookie he's very very smart they've got a lot of football instincts and he stepped up you know we stepped up the end of the Giants game when they had cramps and then he obviously stepped up last week and I can say there's room for improvement for all of us but we got confidence in him or wherever whatever way other direction we decided to go sure all options on the table he led every option is on the table and we feel pretty good about the plan and obviously we got to go out there and implement it and see what it looks like in practice sure yeah you know you have a vision you know when you at the thing I think you got to come into these jobs with it you like I said you got to be objective you're going to get a lot of information for a lot of people maybe not intentionally but there's a lot of different motives when people you got to filter all down and then you got to make your own judgment and you really don't know until you actually get to work with somebody and you know I always say this about coaches players you may know people friends in the business or you know you've heard anything about players but until you go through a season you don't really know about somebody that's when you really find out about people players and coaches but say he's one of those guys you found out who he is and he's an ultimate problem yeah it's definitely possible like I said we still got some time with those guys both those guys will practice all week both those guys will travel with us you know we can make a decision you know at any time but yeah that those options are on the table it just depends you know he's played it before different scheme you know obviously with Kendall yeah he'll go out there and practice and hopefully find a role for us yeah you know both teams I think what you're seeing as standard now most teams usually have been flying over through the night on Thursday both teams are gonna do it here in this instance us and the Jets you know in the past some people have treated it like a bull week they've gone over maybe Sunday night from the previous game or Monday and they've been there all week you know there's pretty good science behind it that's what most teams I think have done this overnight get there Friday you know like I was telling Bassidy you know half these games have been 14 plus you know point differential so there's been 28 games 13 of them have been decided by 14 or more for various reasons you can't put say hey well in a day is both teams are handled the same handled or handed the same circumstances we got to adapt we're excited about going over there I think it's a hell of an opportunity when you can showcase the NFL and the game in a market like this I'm excited as hell the teams excited it's a challenge it's a big game for us you know we need to go over there and play well when sure hey talked to a lot of people you know I was a part of the staff that we did this we played at Wembley we played the charges over there in 18 I used a pretty similar schedule you know you talked to people obviously Jacksonville has been over there more than anybody you have people that I know that been on those staffs you reach out to them no different than the Jets I mean they got people that were in Jacksonville too so and you talk around you talk to people in other industries and try to make the best decision for your team well you know it's not necessarily a fixed number it's over time that's why I'm you know you can get frustrated by things we're one of three and you know I just look at we haven't turned the profit yet and there's a lot of ways to look at it and and we feel like that profits gonna turn but right now we haven't turned the profit so we are what we are we're one of three there's there's several reasons and you know we deserve to be because but there is progress being made so I look at it like a business like we're gonna turn a profit and you need to do it hopefully sooner and faster but like would you go with the run game same analogy obviously you get down to Tampa the game can kind of evolves didn't get a lot of carries there but I feel like the run games coming we don't have to have a set number of carries I said we want to be balanced we don't want to be obvious there's strides sometimes there's some painful short-term frustrations that'll eventually pay over long-term games and that's certainly you can see that in the run game some of your protection schemes so week over week we just got to make sure we're turning in the right direction so that's kind of look at it it kind of all goes into play there it's a good question yeah well he's obviously a seasoned veteran he's my age he has got a lot of mutual friends and he went to Tennessee knew a lot of the same same people I was in me being from Memphis he's pointed well for a long time in the league so we expect him to go out there and execute and we got a lot of faith in him certainly helps when you got veterans you know he knows what to expect knows how to prepare to go out there and operate so we're excited let's see what he can do yeah he's got incredible arm strength you go back you look at that Titans game when he got outside the pocket he made him pay he's deadly accurate all scheduled so we know it's gonna be a tremendous challenge that's an era we got to improve you know like I said the guys man it's the NFL is a tough transition that's why you know these hot takes same thing you're dealing with with somebody like Kyle there is growth getting you know it's but you can't make these snap judgments I think a lot of times in society and it's great for the game there's so much hype and everything's in our face 24-7 what a social media whatever it is they can almost the hype can be overwhelming the truth is let's see how this thing plays out at the end of the year you think guys have massive rookie years and then they fall off a cliff you guys have bad rookie years they go into Hall of Fame careers that's why I look at these quarterbacks like I don't get caught up in whatever narrative is after four weeks I mean you go back and look at somebody like Peyton Manning I believe he you know had the all-time interception as a rookie and look what you know he arguably the best ever to do it so it's harder now to have perspective and everything so instant gratification so I guess on the bigger picture a lot of these rookies people want to hammer on things there's some talented players that position the quarterback is really hard to play and you see it I mean you see his talent and we got to be ready to go because he can expose them they're all different you know it's a good question I'm not you know I don't want to get into you know not state secrets whatever but I'm not gonna get into the hay schematically what it is they all present different challenges they're all the same I think that's what makes it laughable to me I'll go back to bigger picture I think this where stereotypes are really dumb the guy where he played for you know you can almost write some of these narratives themselves before they ever play a snap like hey a guy hits this 40 number he looks this way he's gonna be this type of player it's laughable they're all different they all have different talents and and Zach Wilson he's gonna provide a big time challenge for us he's a really good player yeah there is a lot of logistical it's a good question there's a lot of planet goes into it you got to make sure the past but we plan this you know the NFL does a good job with our operation team Brandon Ruth those guys they do a hell of a job and and Sarah and Griff and then you we plan this out I mean I was told pretty early when I took this job that we're gonna go over there you have plans you have contingency plans in case we're not playing and they told us about month ago it's a go but but from the summer in the spring we talked about get your passports in and and when you got to be yeah and that's it's big right you sign a guy this week you can make sure they got their passport so there's a lot of planning goes into it sure that's all we got ahead of it we're not looking I know a lot of times you know people think that you're getting these jobs and there's a lot of glitz and glamour you're gonna skip the line we didn't skip the line anywhere told them a long time ago get your passports and I think more people now have them I think this is probably a bigger deal it seems to me as more people have their passports now it's more common than probably was as I'm sure it was a bigger challenge 15 years ago in terms of just being on people about getting them you know okay here here's how I'll say that I think they made progress every week I wouldn't call to step back I don't know what numbers you referred to I think there's improvement week to week I think we're close in the run game and only reason I ask I don't know you know sometimes you get these questions and they're all every questions fair but I just to answer it simply no I mean that we've been playing some pretty good fronts I think Washington they have one sack we had a miscommunication me optimistically don't think it should happen it's a pretty damn good front they block so we hopefully building conference we got a even bigger challenge these guys are freaking humming up front it's seven sacks last week they play freaking hard so we we got a work cut off the front but no no we're making progress I mean I think you could you know even being optimistic or trying to nobody's trying to cook the books here and you know I'm not trying to send out a shareholder letter you know to pump our stock up with some Wall Street analysts I think you just look week over week obviously in week one it wasn't good enough week two I thought it was a little bit better week three same thing there's always gonna be things we got to correct but we got a challenge it's a life in the NFL good player then disruptive like I said those guys move they don't give up on the rush I got an initial burst up the field I got good counter moves and they got they run games as well as anybody in the league and a lot of you know a lot of his production too that's why it's a coordinated rush you know you know a lot of like you know it's funny because you have people's different takes on sacks you can have some high volume sack teams that are bad teams you know they don't win a lot of games and you know they have a lot of high number sacks you can have some rush groups that can make life hell they may not have a lot of sack numbers this group is about as good as coordinated as an end so you look at somebody like him a lot of his production comes because he's really talented he's a really good player but they got some selfless guys up there they're getting guys open to pick games they run or damn good they don't give up on the rush a lot of times if you get you off your first read and the quarterbacks holding it he's coming around the edge it's all those guys I mean so I said it's as good as a coordinated rush as I've seen so far it's not shut down it's like it's like here you know we get over there we've got a schedule but we you know we believe in you know how to how to do this and travel obviously we'll see what the results are at the end of the weekend but you know where we're staying I mean there's not I mean it's they got a really nice setup for us but it's no different than here you know I think the UK is in a very similar spot as the United States you know I've said been over there a couple years but I don't think it's gonna be it's not gonna look like 2020 I guess it's probably the best way to put it yeah I do I think it's exciting and I think the fact that we can go play an NFL game over there and you're gonna have a full crowd and people are excited about football it helps grow the game and I think that's healthy for the game it's healthy for the NFL healthy for football in all levels our football a lot of those are you know when you're going week to week you've seen we yet it's not been consistent you know we were different matchups different plans and a lot of it comes down to special teams we meet a lot of those guys you know in order to get a helmet on game day they got to have a role you've obviously seen us use Felipe and dirt and different roles Wayne we felt he's he's gotten here he's gotten better he's got a role saw a couple things I liked in the run game we got to make a decision in the week but he's progressing yeah I don't know business savvy I am but you know that's a great question for Rich McKay maybe you can get past to get him to come out here and talk or hit the dell up or no but they the NFL does a really fantastic job with this it's exciting maybe in my mindset I you know I I like it you know I just think it's it's it's really cool when he's about to think about it that we can go over there and there's excitement and it grows the game you know it's a franchise again I got my own thoughts but I'm just speculating so I'm not gonna get out here and say it I think it's it's exciting I think it's cool and who knows what the future holds way I look at it the same way when we got to the vaccinations you know you people got to educate themselves so we have way we travel like I think everything has a curfew you know we educated guys on everything that we tried to and they got to make decisions I mean you're talking about adults here this isn't college football or I don't so believe that you know you I believe in freedom of choice now we were smart about stuff and we're not asking guys to do anything it wouldn't do at home I think we've got a responsible group I think that's why you know like I said I mean these guys there's no mandate to get vaccinated these guys that make the best interest the best decision for themselves and what they thought helped them and their family and that's all we do we don't put the old trips on guys we have a schedule guys have been great about it we had no issues down in Miami I don't expect any issues when we go to London um you know those guys where we'll evaluate them again we'll have to see you know I don't know much they'll really practice today obviously we got to make a decision before we get on the plane if we're gonna leave anybody back if it's the best interest for their rehab or we think they got a chance to play we'll bring them with us yeah no okay guys I'll answer every question you had you held up there for you had your hand up there for a while I don't ever claim to have a whole right answers but I promise you I won't short you guys on the question so Corey yeah no Corey is a really good player he's fearless going inside the numbers and one of the toughest tougher players I've coached happy for CD you know he got rewarded with a with a nice contract and and I see a very physical player I said he's fearless with the football he's he's physical in the run game and he's making some big plays for me in a big big play form last week on a play extension happy Zell for Corey Davis obviously we got a we got a chance we got to stop them on Sunday no different than I saw Adam Humphries last week really like Adam you know but when we come down the game time if you're if I was playing against my family I'm trying to we're trying to whip like beat the crap out of him so but I got another respect for core Davis yeah so CJ really really smart football player obviously Dean coached him in Baltimore gone against him a few times very very smart player so from what I see on tape he looks as good as he's ever looked and he's making plays and looks like he's running the show over there and he's a really good football player and we got a count for yeah there's a lot of ways to look at it you know that's the biggest challenge and that's the thing you like you gotta love about pro football like I said sometimes it's you can't let something linger whether you win a game say you know we want to say we'd hit the Hail Mary right you can't let that you for and think all sudden you've got all your problems solved and have to hang over and get crushed over in London and you're going to by week two and three that way you got to get over wins and losses quick in this league or the real plan in London the sentence of the Maldives you know that's our job we signed up for let's go play a game we got to get prepared to go play it and it is the hardest thing to do oh week after week after week that's why the challenge of pro football is unlike any other thing because the games they're not 82 games 17 of them now season takes on four or five lives of his own as it evolves deal with injuries you have a couple tough losses can you get better can you keep perspective like I said you could be frustrated but you better get over it and if you're seeing things that are signs of progress you can be encouraged but you've got to keep pushing and improving and so yeah it's not what we want to be like I said we haven't turned the profit but it's a you know every week's big and we got to get ready to go certainly yeah it does whether you want to lose going into a buy it feels like it lingers because you got two weeks you're still on it but if even if we win we got to be able to turn the page in next week accomplish what we need to in a buy and then get ready for my you know Miami it'll be the same challenge but it's a good question but winter lose don't let it let there be a hangover you know sometimes players you know they can take a you may think you have a great scheme it goes off schedule and you know the end results really good but you can look back at it and that's we have a jet this because you scored on the play doesn't mean it was some great scheme or some great play call I think a lot of times in a game of football that's so complex there's a lot of variables and if you can shrink it down and just be brilliant in the basics of what you're trying to do it sounds so boring but sometimes a mundane over and over and over again it pays off and then a lot of those repetitions and things we're asking guys to do so in the route craft timing you know with some as little as some of our the action fakes where we set up you know I think you said we feel like we're making progress week over week again we got a turn of profit and what you can't have you know all sudden you feel like you're making progress but you're not turning a profit and then it goes the other way so Matt's as good as anybody is work habits study habits and he works on crap but I kind of call it we got to be brilliant in the basics and a lot of times that's not a flashy word it's not doesn't get a headline it's not fun to write about but that's kind of what it comes down to that's hard to speculate you know I just hope you know say they're going to attack it he'll attack as well as anybody you know that's probably a better question for him and our medical staff you know you never know what the future holds I don't get in predictions and injuries because I just seen it obviously Adrian Peterson was one of the freaks that you know he kind of almost like ruined it for everybody else but but he's he's an outlier they're all different like I said and it doesn't mean it's right or wrong that's why I don't ever give timetable on injuries because it sets up bad you know narratives and that's not fair to the player I'll try to get some sleep I said I probably drink way too much coffee so I need to sleep you know because we're gonna get over there and it'll be about six o'clock in the morning so I'll certainly try on normal domestic flights I really don't growing up I've never been asleep in the car on airplane so yeah it's you're jogging a couple things and we have a schedule we believe in you know I'm not going to great detail about it but you know that's the challenge I mean we got it we got a whole work week ahead of us we're still playing on Sunday yes there is a little bit of the obviously the state in the obvious there is difference we'll get on a plane and flying internationally across the pond so you know everybody the both teams are dealing with the same set of circumstances you know there's things we'll do Friday to try to make sure we adjust that we feel pretty confident in and you hope by the time we you know you wake up Sunday you feel pretty well adjusted I look older though you're insinuating that he's using certain products so there's a shots fired towards Bassidy yeah you know I don't know I don't know if it's a bad look or good look sometimes I really don't care I've got a big enough family like I said that somebody's gonna is gonna make fun of me and somebody's gonna say hey it looks good you don't know what the truth is maybe I'll shave maybe I'm not maybe I'll go for the urine clop look when I get over there so but yeah sometimes I get reminded that there sure is a lot of beer a great going in your beard and there's a lot of gray in my hair too so I don't know I said I don't know what the truth is yeah I mean again because Bassidy's kind of a jackass you know he set us up here again I don't know if he was trying to mess with you or me or both you know I'm a huge fan of the show but that has nothing to do with us I don't I don't view us as the same spot as ASC Richmond that's why I always laugh is it's why you don't pay attention to the noise I mean something as harmless as a joke like that that's what I tell people all the time like get off get off the line sometimes and don't go down toxic rabbit holes somebody's gonna think you're an a-hole somebody's gonna think you're you're smart something I think you're the dumbest person in the world something here you know this or that I thought it was pretty funny I don't like to work with people don't have a sense of humor personally players or coaches and if you can't take criticism or you can't laugh at yourself I really don't want to work with you so I thought it was pretty funny move by Bassidy but I'm not gonna lean into it I'm not gonna get off the plan with a mustache and a visor and an ASC Richmond tracksuit all right. Appreciate it. Thank y'all.
