RB Jeff Wilson Jr.

(Good to have you back on the field. How were you feeling physically last night, and did they give you any sense that they were going to ease you back last night in terms of, you had a pass thrown to you but didn’t have any carries?) – “Body feels great. Glad to be back with the team, with the guys. That’s always a blessing. Every opportunity you get is something you have to cherish because everybody doesn’t get those. As far as that, I really don’t know. All I know is stay ready and be prepared. I’m not a coach so I can’t control any of that. All I know is just lock in on what I have to do and be ready.”

(Can you tell us about the process of coming back? Because I know when it first happened, it seemed like you were close to even playing in that last preseason game and then it ended up keeping you out for a while.) – “It was stressful because that’s a part of the journey that you don’t want to miss, especially when you have the camaraderie with the guys, getting familiar and getting used to your o-line, your quarterback. So missing all that time, that definitely hurt me that way. But it’s football and this is something that I’ve been playing since I was five years old in pads. It’s like riding a bike almost. You just get on there and do it. Getting back at practice and getting back with those guys and feeling the lanes and feeling the cuts and the blocks again, it’s all been great. Like I said, it’s just a matter of time.”

(What’s your overall perspective on where this team can go as it starts to get a lot of guys back now? You just came back and then obviously RB De’Von Achane is on IR, and you’ve got T Terron Armstead and CB Jalen Ramsey going to be returning soon, and a few other guys.) – “The sky is the limit. Like I said, it’s all in-house. It’s all us. We’ve just got to keep on getting better and keep on striving for our goals, blocking out the outside noise and take it one week at a time.”
