Wide Receiver DeVante Parker

(Head Coach Adam Gase said that no matter what, you told him at the beginning of the week you were playing. Obviously, you had to feel something right?) – “I just felt kind of bad through the week, just letting it rest a little bit.”

(And how do you feel today?) – “I’m feeling fine today.”

(How did it respond yesterday while you played?) – “It felt good. Just had to keep fighting.”

(Did it limit you at all or did you go 100 percent?) – “No. I went 100 percent.”

(So what happened on the play in the end zone where you had the ball and then…) – “I didn’t really have the ball.”

(Did you think you were going to be able to come up with it when it was in the air or was it 50/50 in your eyes or what?) – “I don’t know. I just didn’t come up with it.”

(Did you feel the safety coming over the top there?) – “I didn’t see the safety coming. I was just focusing on the ball.”

(Obviously there’s never a good time to lose or get punched in the mouth but how do you guys handle this adversity and bounce back from this?) – “Just get better throughout the week in practice and fix things that we didn’t do correctly in the game. Just fix it.”

(Do you feel like you’ve taken any steps back as far as healing from the back injury or do you feel like you’ll be ready to go next week as well?)  – “I feel like … I guess I can see what happens this week but I’m going to focus on playing.”

(Back to that throw in the end zone. Was there anything you could’ve done differently on that play?)  – “I don’t think so.”

(It was just a great play in your mind by the defensive back?)  – “I guess.”

(Head Coach Adam Gase was saying that WR Jarvis Landry and WR Kenny Stills were doing a good job trying to encourage you to make it back in time for the game. What sort of things were they telling you?)  – “I just wanted to be out there with them. Really I just wanted to be out there for them, to help them out and be out there for the team. That’s the only thing.”

(I know losses like that aren’t easy but how tough is it to flush that one, especially after the six-game winning streak you guys have just put together?) – “It’s very tough. You come out, you go out there and you hope that you can play hard and come up with the W and things end up that way.”
