S Reshad Jones

(How do you feel now?) – “I feel a lot better. I’m taking it day by day. I’m taking it a day at a time. I’ll practice a little bit this week and see if I’m able to go.”

(How did it happen? We saw it was on the last play of the half, right?) – “Yes, right before halftime of the Jets game.”

(Were you relieved that it wasn’t anything too serious?) – “Yes, I’m glad. I don’t have to have surgery or anything like that. I’ll be back. I’ll be back.”

(Today’s only Wednesday, so how do you feel at this moment about your chances for this weekend?) – “Like I said, I feel real good. I’m just going to take it day by day, a day at a time, and see how I feel come Friday later on in the week.”

(Is it the fact that the Patriots are this week make you a little more eager to get back?) – “Not really. Every game is important in this league. It’s a division game. Like Coach (Gase) says, it’s the next game up, so it’s definitely important; but I want to be out there to help these guys win and do whatever I can to be out there with them.”

(The challenge of going up to Foxborough and getting a win. You haven’t had that chance yet in your career.) – “It’s tough. It’s a tough environment to play in. We’re still going to play against a great football team – a great offense, great defense, (great) overall football team. It’s going to be a challenge. It’s a division game, but I know with this coaching staff and these guys in the locker room, we’ll be ready.”

(What is the greatest challenge that QB Tom Brady has posed over the years?) – “He’s probably one of the best to ever do it. They run the ball well. They pass the ball well. They mix up the formations, personnel. We’ve got our hands full. It’s going to be a challenge for us and like I said, I think we’ll be ready.”

(Do you entertain the thought that if you were to win, you would be three games ahead of the Patriots four games into the season?) – “We don’t want to look ahead. Like I said, every game is important. This game is just as important, because it’s the next game. We want to do everything we can to go out and win a division game.”

(To win two road division games, the accomplishment that would be in just a quarter of a season, that would be pretty big.) – “Yes, it definitely would be huge. It definitely would be huge.”

(Based on their slow start, some people have been asking questions about the Patriots. What do you see when you look at them?) – “They’re still a good football team. They’re a champ. They still have Tom Brady, the best quarterback who probably ever played. (Bill) Belichick is still there, one of the best coaches of all time. It’s still a good team. They just started slow I think. Like Coach (Gase) said, four years ago it was pretty much the same way and those guys went on to win the Super Bowl. It’s still a good team. We’re still going to have to go in and fight. It’s a division game and like I said, we’ll be ready.”
