T Terron Armstead

(Could you talk about the influence of T Kendall Lamm? Even though he hasn’t played, you always seen him involved in the game, regardless, and the way he mentors young guys. What is the influence of having a guy like that who’s able to jump in and take over?) – “For sure, and I said it earlier, but I love his approach to the game, to being a professional. He never complains, he just gets the job done. He’s a true hard hat, lunch pail, old school, but I love – since he’s got here, I love everything about his mentality, his mindset. I’ve learned a lot from Kendall (Lamm).”

(And him stepping in, I remember every time he’s played, it’s been very positive.) – “For sure, that’s what he does. He’s ready, he’s a professional at the highest level of the word. He takes it serious, his preparation is on point. He knows exactly where he needs to be, his communication. Like I said, he’s one of my favorite teammates I’ve ever had.”

(What does it take to play 10 years in the NFL?) – “You got to be adaptable. You got to show improvement every day, you got to go prove yourself every day, your preparation, your ability, too – he’s somebody that takes care of his body, he’s been blessed to be healthy most of his career. So it’s a lot man, 10 years don’t just happen. I see a lot of talented guys and for a lot of different reasons, their career stops before 10. That’s like that benchmark that all of us are trying to get to.”

(Obviously this team, where you are at 2-6, where you’re running out of track, how do you get a sense of urgency across?) – “I think we have that urgency, like we understand the situation. It’s all about getting a win, the result at the end. But you don’t get the win without the preparation and the approach that we’ve had and I can’t say this enough how happy I am to be here and be in a team and organization that works the way that we do, like our intent to win because I don’t want to just be here and roll out something on Sunday. We’re actually putting in the work to go win every game and it hasn’t been our result, but we’re not out of anything which is the beauty of it. We’ve started 8-3 the last couple of years and emptyhanded. So our start has been rocky to say the least, but we still have everything that we want in front of us and it all starts with this game on Monday.”
