WR DeVante Parker

(A prime time game coming up on Thursday night. It’s been a couple of years since you played in prime time. Are you excited about that?) – “Yeah, I’m looking forward to it. Like you said, it’s been a while. I’m ready to get back under the lights and be able to go out there and perform with my teammates.”

(What went into your decision to play yesterday? Obviously you got a little banged up the week before. At what point in the week did you know you were good to go?) – “The first day of practice. I’m not missing anymore games.”

(I can’t imagine what it must be like to play a game on a Sunday and then turn around and play right again on a Thursday, both mentally and physically but especially physically. What are some of the things you will do during today – Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday – to make sure you’re at peak physical condition with the game being so close?) – “Recovery, sleep, rest. Whatever you need to do to take care of your body to be ready for that.”

(How much have you helped give some guidance to WR Preston Williams during his young career? Obviously he had a catch that he’d like to have back yesterday. Coming back off of an injury, you’ve had that experience as well. What kind of advice have you given him?) – “I just tell him to do what you can. Try to fight through the pain if you can. You don’t want to do too much.”

(What would you say are some of the things that are on the line Thursday in terms of how important of a game this particular game is?) – “We just need to get a W. That’s it. That’s the biggest thing – get our first win of the season.”
