Commanders HC Ron Rivera didn’t hesitate to mention DB Jeremy Reaves when asked about who stood out from the team’s offseason activities.
“Jeremy Reaves has really practiced with confidence, and you can tell he gets it,” Rivera said, via Commanders Wire. “He understands the concepts even better now. You see him taking charge out there as I like to call them the air traffic controllers, you know, that are helping with the checks, helping to make calls to get guys lined up and stuff like that. That’s what you’re really looking for.”
Former NFL QB Ryan Fitzpatrick spoke about the Giants’ situation with QB Daniel Jones and if he can turn things around in New York.
“Daniel Jones is an interesting one for me because I’ve had coaches that have crossed over with him as well,” Fitzpatrick said, via the New York Post. “And I’ve met him and know him a little bit. Really nice guy. But then to turn it over and say, ‘OK, well, how has he played?’ I think it’s been a tough situation. There have been a lot of injuries. There’s been a lot of stuff he’s had to play through. I actually really like his talent.
“I think the running part of it was a surprise for me. I didn’t know that he was going to be as athletic as he is. But this is a make-or-break year for him. He knows that and everybody in the world knows that. So it’s not going to be a matter of is he putting in the work, because I know that he’s got a strong work ethic. But it’s gonna be about results this year. Is he going to be able to produce or not?”
