CB Kader Kohou

(How’d you spend the bye week?) – “I didn’t really do nothing. I was down here just chilling, really just trying to rest, catch up on sleep. I feel like Germany took a lot out of me.”

(Did you spend time watching games, catching up on some of the teams across the league or no?) – “No. I watched the Raiders game yesterday, bits and parts. I didn’t really watch the whole game. I don’t really watch football like that, to be honest, if it’s not us.”

(I feel like I hear a lot of players say that they don’t want watch. College players will be like, I don’t watch a lot of college. Or NFL players will be like, I don’t watch – is that just because you guys are just focused on what you’re doing or what?) – “I mean, most of the time, like David (Long Jr.) said, Sundays we’re playing and stuff and then when we’re not playing, I really just try to chill and get my mind off football. So I try not to watch it unless I’m watching film and stuff. But just sit there and watch a football game on TV, bits and parts, but not really.”

(What did Head Coach Mike McDaniel say to you guys in the meeting today about the focus for the second half of the season? What was the biggest message from him today?) – “I feel like he kept the same message that he’s had all season long. We’ve got to stay focused and we’ve had the same goals since the season started. So he really didn’t say anything crazy. Same thing we’ve been saying all season.”

(So Head Coach Mike McDaniel kind of suggested, stay the course and follow the plan we’ve followed so far?) – “Yeah, he says we’re getting better as the season gets along. Just keep it at the same level. He didn’t really say nothing crazy.”

(How would you describe the vibe of the defense especially now that almost everyone in the group is fully healthy or mostly healthy?) – “Man, it’s fun to watch. I feel like when the season first started, it’s a new defense and it’s kind of complex, so it took us a little time to get adjusted. But I feel like right now, everybody’s hitting on all cylinders and we’re going to show what our capability really is from what everybody had seen from the first couple games of the season.”

(How do you feel you’re adjusting to going back to that nickel exclusively?) – “I feel like we played a lot of nickel, so even when I was playing outside corner, playing nickel I feel like nothing really changed. The same kind of snap counts I’m getting now at nickel is the same ones I was getting before because I was going back and forth when they stay in nickel most of the game. It’s not really going to change anything.”
