(On his multi-sack performance) “It’s not about the stats, man. At the end of the day, I’m just happy to see guys thrive on the D-Line and on the defense, too. We had a guy that nobody would touch and came in here and had two picks, Tre [Herndon], man that’s special right there. I’m just thankful to see guys like that be able to make plays and progress and get more comfortable within the game.”
(On preparing for the Jets after their loss to the Patriots) “Absolutely. At the end of the day, we seen what the Patriots did, a lot of cover zero blitzes just to get them rattled and they threw four interceptions that game. Just talking to [Head] Coach [Doug] Marrone, he was saying it was still not going to be a cake walk after you’ve taken an embarrassing loss like that on national tv, you’re going to be fired to come up and try to get a win.”
(On how this defense has been able to stop running backs) “Definitely. It just goes back to the fundamentals. I feel like it starts with the D-Line. Both numbers in your gap when you go against those types of backs like that and just let everybody play off of you.”
