QUOTES OF THE DAY
“That’s what we’re working toward. He’s running a little better. The swelling is less. He had a little tendon problem that flared up, but I think he may make it.”
— Robbie Caldwell on the possibility of DT Adam Smotherman returning to practice during the bye week next week (Source: The Tennessean)
“If you go out there worrying, you’ll take yourself out of the game, and there’s no room for that, not this week or ever. Obviously [Manning’s] one of the best if not the best quarterback in the league. Instead of worrying about what he’s doing and all his mannerisms and what he’s saying, we’ve got to worry about what we’re going to do; not let him dictate to us how we’re going to play the game.”
— Giants LB Jonathan Goff on facing Peyton Manning Sunday (Source: NorthJersey.com)
