Defensive Coordinator Jay Niemann addressed the media at Friday’s practice. Always even-keeled, his answers began sounding scripted (unlike Coach Kill) about how the team has “started real well” and is “off to a good start” especially the guys who have been there since the new coaching staff came on. “Hopefully we stay on pace and keep improving.”
More of the same on losing Tyreek Maddox-Williams to injury, “It’s hard because he’s such a good kid. You hate to see anyone get hurt, but certainly we were counting on him to factor into the plans as far as a guy who could play first, second, and third down” .
