CB Xavien Howard

(Earlier, Head Coach Brian Flores told us that CB Byron Jones is unfortunately doubtful for this game. I’m wondering, are you hoping to get to follow one of their receivers around the field or is that probably not something that we will see this week?) – “I don’t know what’s going on with Byron’s situation. We’ll just stick with the game plan and we’ll be good from there.”

(When you’ve got one of the most explosive offenses and the weapons that they have and QB Russell Wilson, do you get excited for this type of matchup, for the challenge and how do you feel going into Sunday?) – “I feel great. The next game is the most important game. I’m just focused on what we’ve got to do to stop everything and we’ll be good.”

(You knew last year, you told us in August that WR Preston Williams was going to be really good. Have you seen enough of WR Lynn Bowden Jr., a guy you got in August, to have any sense of what maybe could come eventually?) – “Lynn is a good guy. This is his second week here or something like that – I don’t know how long he’s been here. He just has to learn the offense and stuff like that, but he’s a very decent guy.”

(We saw you play less than half the snaps in the opener; but you played all but one snap in the past two games. How are you feeling with the increased workload and how is everything coming out for you after games?) – “I’m feeling good. This week, I’m playing, so I’ll be good.”

(You’ve been a guy that’s had strings of interceptions in the past. You’ve had a couple of two pick games in back-to-back games. Getting the first one under your belt this year, is that something that can kind of get you going and get your hands on more footballs going forward?) – “That would be great for the team. That’s what I’m looking forward to and we’ll see Sunday.”

(I wanted to ask you about No. 14 D.K. Metcalf. He’s obviously very muscular and tall, but he also seems to be very fast. What might be something you can try against a guy like that?) – “Just play my game. Just play my game, I’d say. Whatever comes with it, you’ll see Sunday.”
