NFL Trade Rumors
Dolphins rookie QB Quinn Ewers said that the turnovers on offense plagued the team in his first NFL start.
“It’s hard to win ball games whenever you have three turnovers,” Ewers said, via Dolphins Wire. “I wish I had a couple of those throws back, but I think it’s a good learning moment and experience for all those guys in the locker room, myself included. Not the result that we wanted. It’s unfortunate.”
Ewers added that he felt the offense played well, but the turnovers killed their momentum whenever they started to move down the field.
“To be honest with you, I thought that we played well as an offense,” Ewers said. “It’s one of those games where you thought you did a good job, but it just doesn’t translate over to the scoreboard. Like I said, the turnovers are going to do that to you, but man, it’s just what an opportunity to get out there on the field with those guys that we’re just going to build on.”
Jets HC Aaron Glenn stressed the importance of patience to the fanbase and said that the team has a plan to get back to prominence.
“For the fans, listen, it’s going to be a tough road,” Glenn said, via ESPN. “We knew that, but, man, the thing is, we know exactly what we’re doing. We have a plan. Just don’t let go of the rope, I would say that.”
Jets CB Brandon Stephens said that the team has the buy-in from players in the locker room that he’s the right person to orchestrate change.
“I believe in AG, I believe in his plan,” Stephens said. “I believe he’s looking for guys that want to be part of this change.”
Despite the team’s losing record, Glenn said the team doesn’t plan on lying down and still plans to compete in their final games.
Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson spoke about the team’s comeback over the Ravens and how the unit knows that they can come together to make big things happen as a close group of teammates.
Stevenson also spoke on how his teammates and coaches have stood behind him through his ball security issues and continue to give him confidence as the playoffs approach.
