WR Cedrick Wilson Jr.

(We heard from HC Mike McDaniel and QB Tua Tagovailoa about the play at the end of the game yesterday. Just want to hear from your perspective on that third-down play.) – “I feel like it was just a miscommunication. I’m pretty sure that’s what they said. Just a missed opportunity that I wish we could get back.”

(Did your eyes get big for a minute there when you were breaking open?) – “No, I wouldn’t say my eyes got big. My heart kind of got broken when I saw that there was a miscommunication as soon as I saw the ball. That’s moreso where my mind was at.”

(You had a touchdown though earlier in the game. Can you take us through that?) – “Oh, yeah. That was a great throw. Kind of got the coverage that we wanted. Actually, me and Tyreek (Hill) both came open so it would’ve been a touchdown either way I feel. I’m definitely happy that I was able to get the spark for the team and get us back in the game.”

(Do you feel like you’re starting to get your rhythm in this offense?) – “I mean, whenever the opportunity is presented, I’m going to do my job. That’s what I prepare for every day. My only job is to block and when the ball is in the air, go get it.”

(With WR Jaylen Waddle trying to gut it through the game after that early injury, does that kind of change some of the roles you guys have to fulfill as his role kind of becomes a little more diminished?) – “Yeah, I mean when anybody goes down or has an injury in the game, it’s next man up. That’s why we all practice and get the reps during the week. When he went down and got banged up, it was a no-brainer – whether it’s me, Braxton (Berrios) or Chase (Claypool) – someone has to go in there and keep the offense rolling.”

(Do you feel like that training camp rotation of receivers playing with different units kind of helps you guys this time of year to execute when that happens?) – “I think it helps just because everyone needs to be put in those uncomfortable situations because that’s what comes up in the game. The more we prepare for those when they come up, we’ll be able to handle them.”

(Obviously you were such a good sport last year about not playing a ton. How satisfying is it to finally get steady snaps and targets?) – “I mean, I’m not really a satisfied type of person. Moreso just do my job and at the end of the day, the goal is to win. There’s no satisfaction over a touchdown with a loss.”
