Postgame – Jacksonville

WR Kenny Stills (transcribed by Ken Mendonça)

(What do you think this performance says about your team today?) – “We played well for four quarters and we came out with the victory. (Head) Coach (Brian Flores) has been staying on top of us about fundamentals and technique, creating turnovers, and I think he’s seen little bit of that out there on the field today.”

(We’ll probably know pretty soon who the starter’s going to be to start this season. Your thoughts on how this quarterback competition has played out?) – “Both guys look good. We’ll let the coaches make those decisions, but as receivers we just go out there and make plays, regardless of who’s in there.”

(Obviously you’re trying not to be a distraction to the team, but it seems like the team created a distraction when they played eight straight Jay-Z songs the practice before this game. What was your reaction when that happened, and did you know it was going to happen before it happened?) – “It was just music, was my reaction. We play music at practice every day, and Coach (Flores) kind of came up to me during practice, and was like ‘we’re going to be playing Jay-Z today,’ and that was it.”

(Did Head Coach Brian Flores give any reason why? Eight or nine straight is interesting.) – “No. We talked about it in house and he handled it in house, but for the most part I think it was just him trying to see if I could handle if someone was going to heckle me, or play Jay-Z music in another stadium, if I was going to be mentally strong enough to withstand that type of treatment I guess. I’ve been dealing with this since 2016 – music, boo’s, racial slurs, so I don’t think a little bit Jay-Z is going to really ruffle my feathers that bad.”

(Did you hear from your teammates a little bit?) – “Oh yeah, that’s part of the locker room. Guys talk trash, but it was just music.”
