RB Patrick Laird

(Obviously you’re looking at the very strong possibility of getting some work on offense. How exciting is that for you?) – “Yeah, it’s exciting; but I’m treating this week like every week this season – just come in, prepare, learn the game plan and try to execute in practice.”

(What have been the challenges the last couple weeks? You lose RB Kenyan Drake, now RB Mark Walton is gone, a new player is here – what have been the challenges for your group specifically?) – “I don’t think there’s been many challenges. I think everyone has just come in, learned the game plan that week and practiced hard and just try to execute on Sundays.”

(How antsy have you been to get some work on offense?) – “I haven’t focused on whether I get reps or not on Sundays. I just come in every week, prepare the same and make sure when I get the opportunity on a Sunday I’m ready to go.”

(How did you feel about your performance in the exhibition games?) – “Like the preseason?”

(Yeah, you led the team in rushing back then.) – “I felt solid about my preseason performance and the coaches had good feedback for me. We have a lot of good running backs on this team, but like I said, every week I’ve just come in, prepared; so if I ever do get an opportunity then I’m ready to go.”

(You have gotten a big role on special teams in the first half of the season. How do you feel that’s gone?) – “I love doing whatever I can to help the team win. If you’re a rookie in this league and you want to play, special teams is sometimes the best opportunity you have. I’ve loved playing on special teams. I didn’t play in the first game, but every other game I’ve been starting special teams and I love that role on this team and I’ll do it for as long as I can.”
