Opening statement:
“On the injury front, you saw we ruled out (CB) Denzel (Ward) and (WR) KhaDarel (Hodge), and we will list (TE Austin) Hooper as questionable.
“Thought it was a really good work week. Just getting off the field here, thought it was a very crisp day today. We understand the challenge that we have with a very good football team coming into our building. Looking forward to getting in front of our fans again there on Monday night.
“I do want to mention Anthony Hughes Jr. He was the young man who lost his life on Wednesday night in our city. I just want to extend my condolences to his friends and his family. I know he was active in the Boys & Girls Club. Such a tragic, senseless thing that happened. I encourage everybody to read this young man’s story and then find a way that we can be a part of making sure things like this do not happen again.”
