On coming back out after injury
“I thought I could go, I thought I could fight through it. I just went out there, and it kind of locked up on me. From that point try to come back, but we trust Heinrich (Haarberg) in those situations, and I thought it was best for the team. I could possibly hurt them if I went back out there, Heinrich did a really good job.”

On trying to stay in the game
“I think their offense did a good job of staying on the field. They had their looks that we haven’t seen. We came out after the second half and we had answers for it all. They did a good job, and I give them credit.”

On today’s missed opportunity
“Like Coach Rhule said, ‘Missed.’ Had every chance to go win that game, especially in the first half, and came up short. We’ll let it sting for a couple days, we have a bye week this week. We’ve got to figure it out and there’s really no other way around it other than attacking it head on.”
