WR Keke Coutee

(Was it kind of weird facing your former team just a couple days after the release. Any emotions with it?) – “No not really. I played against them in the past. It’s always good to be back in the state of Texas, to be out here and go against some great competition. But most importantly, I’m just happy to be a Miami Dolphin, so I would say it was good to see all those guys I used to play with.”

(You’re joining a really talented wide receiver group. What have been your impressions of this group your first week or so in Miami?) – “Like you said, it’s a very talented room. Everybody brings a different skillset from Tyreek (Hill) to Cedrick (Wilson Jr.) to Braxton (Berrios). All those guys bring something to the table. All of them are excellent football players and they bring something special to the room.”

(What do you hope to bring to this team?) – “Most importantly, just understanding the system and being out there and doing what I can do to help this team win any way possible.”

(How excited are you to get the chance to work with Wide Receivers Coach Wes Welker? You guys have the same college background and now he’s your receivers coach.) – “Of course, it’s great. Once I knew Wes was over here, and he’s the receivers coach, it was obviously a great connection being from Texas Tech University as well. His knowledge of the game and how to run routes and get open is very beneficial for me.”

(I imagine the learning curve maybe isn’t too much because some of the stuff you were doing in Houston in terms of the offense?) – “I would say everywhere is different. Every system is different. I’m taking it day-by-day and understanding, but it’s definitely coming along.”

(How would you describe your strengths as a player?) – “Speed. Agility. Able to get out of cuts downfield. Big playmaker. Like I said, I’m not trying to do the big plays right now, I’m just trying to help this team as much as I can right now.”

(What’s it like to be back?) – “It’s always good. Like I said, it’s always to be back in the great state of Texas. This is where I started my career for the first three years, so it’s always a good feeling to come back.”

(Is it a bit different from when you were first here?) – “Definitely a lot different. A lot of different players, a lot of different coaching staff and a different regime. Those guys over there are going to be in good hands.”

(What was that first meeting with Head Coach Mike McDaniel like?) – “That was my first time ever just seeing him in person. I hadn’t seen him to this point. He’s a real energetic guy. Very outspoken, very high energy guy. A great coach.”
