S Reshad Jones

(You were telling us about how your recovery from the chest injury was going.) – “I feel pretty good. I’ve just been taking it a day at a time. I’m almost 100 (percent).”

(Have they been overly cautious with you or have you been overly cautious with yourself? How do you think that’s gone?) – “I think both. Both.”

(Why? What do you think?) – “It was a cracked rib, so I was just taking it a day at a time to let it heal itself. I didn’t need any surgery or anything like that, though.”

(Breathing is no fun with one of those is it?) – “No. Not at all.”

(Were you able to sleep?) – “Not the first week. It was a little tough, but the sleep is getting better now.”

(How did it happen?) – “A tackle in the Redskins game. I tried to pull a guy down and he came and sat on me, and I guess crushed that area or whatever. I noticed it was a cracked rib.”

(Was it one, was it two? A bunch of them or just one of them?) – “I think it was just one.”

(What’s it been like watching the games on Sundays?) – “It’s hard. I’m a competitor. I always want to be out there with my guys to help the guys win football games or whatever. I can only take it a day at a time. Like I said, I’m excited and happy to be back to help these guys.”

(Would you be alright with wearing rib protectors during the game?) – “It depends on whatever the training staff comes up with. I’ll probably have something on to protect the area.”

(Do you feel like an old man with all of these kids in the secondary?) – “Nah, I still feel 18. I still feel good. (laughter)”

(Do you expect to play this week?) – “Yeah. Most definitely.”

(What have you noticed that the team has been able to do well over the last two games/) – “They’ve been complementing each other good. Offense has been playing good, the special teams has been playing well and the defense played well. That’s how you win football games in this league. You have to complement each other in all three phases of the game.”

(What do you see out of CB Nik Needham?) – “He’s just been working. He’s finding ways to make plays. He’s listened to coaching, he’s taking coaching very well. He’s fighting his tail off to continue to help the team.”

(Is it more impressive that CB Nik Needham came here undrafted, got cut and then coming back and getting the opportunity?) – “Oh yeah, most definitely. We joke with him a lot, but he’s been progressing and working his tail off to help this team win football games.”

(What are you seeing out of the secondary in general?) – “I think they’ve been playing pretty well, communicating and doing the things that they need to do to help this team win football games. I think as a whole, they’ve been playing pretty well.”

(Did you ever have a broken rib in your life before?) – “Never.”
