WR Jaylen Waddle

(Week 1 the excitement level getting out there in front of those fans in a game that counts. What’s going to be going through your head when you go out there?) – “Week 1 every year is always special to get out there. We get to see our team against someone else, finally all of us together. It’s going to be special; we get to see what we’re made of and finally get to go against someone else not in training camp honestly.”

(What do you see in the Jaguars’ defense?) – “Tough. Led by Tyson Campbell, great. Real good at the line of scrimmage and then anchored by (Andre) Cisco No. 5, he’ll really make you pay if you don’t respect him. It’s going to be a great Week 1 task. We’re going to have a hard tough game.”

(With two games in five days to start the season, do you kind of have to keep that in mind going in?) – “No, man. It’s taking it game by game. We know we’ve got a short week coming up, but our ultimate goal is to go out there and win. Give it all we got.”

(It’s early to really know if there is going to be a touchdown of course, but last year that was a big deal for the touchdown celebrations. You guys would have meetings about this.) – “Yes, our process day is normally tomorrow. So we have nothing planned, but everybody has been shooting their ideas, and we got some pretty good ones, I ain’t going to lie. We’ve got some pretty good ones.”

(What do you expect out of WR Tyreek Hill this year?) – “I expect a lot. I expect him to be him and lead us. He’s got a lot of character and it translates to Sundays. Going out there and playing with high energy is making us better.”

(He pegged you as an All-Pro this year, you know?) – “Yeah, he did. (laughter) Like I said, ‘Reek’ is just – y’all know he’s just going to say whatever.”

(Do you have any individual goals for yourself?) – “Not yet, man. I’m just worried about the task at hand and playing consistent throughout the year.”

(His most interesting comments this week was him saying you’re sitting more in the back of the room more with him and WR River Cracraft. In all serious, is there anything you’ve changed this offseason where you’ve said to yourself back in the spring,” This is what I want to do differently heading into the season?”) – “I think I’m just focusing more in meetings. You know I’ve been in this offense for the last three years, but I’m really focused on the details. So going back there with him and ‘Riv’ (River Cracraft) that really know the ins and outs of this offense, just making me better and ultimately going out there and playing faster on Sunday.”
