LB Jordyn Brooks

(You had a new inside linebacker next to you for this game. The move to insert LB Anthony Walker into the starting lineup instead of LB David Long Jr. What did you see from “Walk” [Anthony Walker Jr.] and then also, how have you seen Long sort of react to it?) – “I think it’s been a good transition. I thought ‘Walk’ (Anthony Walker Jr.) came in and played great, communicated well for us, kind of got everybody settled down. And as far as reaction, I don’t think it’s been any reaction. Nothing crazy, it’s been all love in the linebacker room. Everybody supporting each other and so I think it’s been a good transition.”

(You often faced the Rams being in the NFC West so many years. What can you say about their offense?) – “I think that the playmakers on their offense is what makes their team go. Quarterback and the two receivers they have. They’ve also got a good running back along with good coaches, so it’ll be a challenge, just like every other week to stop them.”

(According to Pro Football Reference, you’re the only Dolphins player on defense that has played every defensive snap this season. Did you know that? Have coaches ever tried to take you out and give you a break and you wave them off saying like, “no, I’m not coming out of the game”?) – “No, I mean I play linebacker. Linebackers don’t come off the field and so I’m used to it. Did the same thing in Seattle, playing every snap so it’s nothing new to me.”

(Can you break down what happened in the Buffalo game on that long touchdown where RB Ray Davis sort of escaped and then went downhill with a lot of room to run? From your perspective, what occurred on that play?) – “Just communication. I put that one on me, having to take the back. We were in man coverage, having a back and a tight end for the inside linebackers, just a miscommunication on my part and so I went back, told the guys, ‘that’s on me.’ Got it handled on the sideline and so that’s something that we got to get better at this week, speaking to myself.”
