Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill plans to hold himself more accountable this season and applauds QB Tua Tagovailoa‘s leadership after his recent comments about him.
“I think Tua’s comments were needed,” Hill said, via Pro Football Talk. “He’s obviously the leader of our team, so he sets the standard, so I’m just trying to be the best teammate, best version of myself I can be. Showing up to meetings, coming out here every da,y and busting my tail in practice, I think it’s important. If you want to be able to leave a legacy, you’ve got to be able to consistently do those things. I think it’s very important because football is a team sport. It is important.”
Jets HC Aaron Glenn said that both RB Breece Hall and RB Braelon Allen will play significant roles in the backfield this season.
“I told Breece [Hall] that receiving will be an element of his game that we’re gonna try and make sure that we utilize, and Braelon, a 240-pound back that’s always falling forward, that’s where he’s gonna make his money,” Glenn said, via Jets Wire. “Just being able to downhill run, that’s gonna weigh on defensive players, and when you continue to do that, you create something as far as a team, as far as an identity, that this league will take notice of, and I’m looking forward to that.”
