RB Salvon Ahmed

(We learned RB Malcolm Brown will have to go on IR. Your reaction to losing a fellow running back for some time? And my other question was just your thoughts on the way you ran the football with 25 carries between the three running backs? That’s something we haven’t seen nearly as much in the games prior.) – “You hate to lose teammates and that sucks, but you just got to keep going. This is a team full of guys ready to play and be professional. That’s that part. We just got to keep getting better as a team, whether that’s running the ball or doing different things. We just got to keep improving and coming to practice and working.”

(What’s your motivation? You guys are probably out of the playoffs here before the season is halfway through, but where do you turn? Where do you draw your motivation from to play your best every week? It’s got to be difficult.) – “The guys in the room. The guys in that locker room. We are a team and that’s where you get your motivation from. You want to play as hard as you can, not only just for the locker room but the coaches. Everyone in this organization works extremely hard. We want to go out there and play our best every single game. That’s where you get that motivation from – the guys that we’re with every single day.”

(Do you remember at any point in your football career losing six games in a row?) – “This game is hard. This game is not easy so there are a lot of ups and downs. We just have to keep working and build. Just keep building. It’s a long season. It’s Week 7 so we have 10 more weeks, so it’s a long season. This game is hard and has ups and downs and that’s part of the game.”

(Mentally, how do you stay even-keel and forget what happened last week and move on? That’s not easy to do.) – “Yeah, absolutely. I think it just goes back to knowing that it’s a long season. You can’t dwell on the past. What happened yesterday was yesterday and now we’re getting ready for this coming week. I think you kind of got to move on. You can’t dwell on it and you have to go to practice and get ready on Wednesday.”
