CB Xavien Howard

(I know you guys have talked about a long-term contract. Are you all close?) – “My agent will handle that business. I’m just here to take care of my business on the field.”

(Are you excited about the possibility though that they do want to keep you long-term? Did that please you, just the fact that they’ve made an offer and want to keep you?) – “Oh yeah, I’m here today. I’m here getting better and to help my team win.”

(Why did you choose to come to this voluntary camp?) – “It’s a new staff, new guys. I just want to build as a team.”

(How important do you feel it is to play a leadership role for what’s here right now?) – “We’re trying to build with the new staff. We’re just trying to get things together and be on the same page.”

(What is your understanding of why S Reshad Jones wasn’t out here today?) – “I have no problem with that. I’m just worried about the guys that are here. Everybody is getting better and just wants to build.”

(You mentioned the new staff, what are your initial impressions of Head Coach Brian Flores?) – “He’s a great guy.”

(Would your hope be … I know you’re having your rep handle all of the contract stuff but would your preference be to get something done this offseason and to not go into this year in the final year of your contract?) – “I’m here today and we’ll just see how it goes from there.”

(What have you already learned about the things that Head Coach Brian Flores wants to do in his defense that you like?) – “It’s the first day here. We’re just trying to get a feel for it. We have to know our role in the defense that he wants us to do. We’re just going to get better each day.”

(Is there a big difference between the type of practice that was run last year and this one?) – “No.”

(How have you spent the spring?) – “I’ve been training, just trying to get better each and every day.”
