How has Garrett Bradbury’s experience in the league helped the team so far?
Garrett Bradbury is one of the veteran linemen that were available heading into this offseason and as you know, our offensive line needed some tweaking. Hence why we went after Garrett, we have a few rookies on our line and I vision Garrett as a mentor to them that can help them and guide them and help them progress. Having a veteran piece on the line is always a key piece. A veteran presence can dictate the line and how impactful it is. You've seen the likes of Jason Kelce, etc and what kind of presence they've had around their teammates. We're hoping Garrett can offer us the same.
What is the status of Deebo Samuel and when is he set to return?
As you all know Deebo Samuel suffered a torn pec early on into the season, and it set him out for the rest of the year. He's currently going through rehab still and we're hopeful that we can have him on the field for pre-season. He'll definitely be available for week one to kick off the season with us. But if possible we'd love to have him on the field, for a couple drives to shake off the rust and find a footing for himself. Based off what we've seen off our facilities, he'll be back and ready to go better than ever.
I want to ask you about the receiver position in general. How have you seen that position evolve in importance over the years and how does having a player like WR Tee Higgins sort of factor into that perspective?
Tee Higgins, wow. He's one of the best in the league and it's an honor to have him on our team. He's a physical specimen. He can catch it over one person, two people, or even in a triple coverage situation we've seen him do it all. We lost one great wide receiver in terms of Terry Mcclaurin and gained another great wide receiver in terms of Tee Higgins. When we need a play, he'll be able to make it. I can promise that.
