“Naturally, I would like to be a little more finely tuned. I'm definitely not where I want to be as a quarterback in terms of timing and those types of things, but it's coming back, and I think the extra work is paying off.”
“[The trade] definitely took me by surprise, but it kind of motivates you to go out and work even that much harder because now the coaches have put their trust in you to do a job, ... Because now I'm that much closer to having to be in the game. They entrusted me in a job, and I intend to do that job to the best of my ability.”
“I'm excited about the position I'm in, ... It provides an opportunity for me to be the second-string guy now on a team that I love to play for. That's an exciting opportunity for me. I'm excited for Tim and the new opportunity that he has, and we're just going to move on here from where we're at.”
“My position is that no matter what happens, I'm going to go out there and prepare and be ready to go. I have a lot of faith in this coaching staff, and they're going to make the best decision.”
“When you're the third guy, you don't get many reps in practice. You've kind of got to just rely on your past experiences, and go from there. There's no replica for game experience out there. Having [last season's]experience under my belt helps me.”
“It's an opportunity for me to go out and play and do some good things. You just never know what kind of opportunity is going to arise. I didn't have any idea two weeks ago, being the third-string quarterback, that I'd be starting today.”
