so guys all right uh injuries for today etour Knee will not practice D Winner's ankle will not practice Huff Knee will be limited Banks U finger CAF will be limited Christian mcaffrey calf ailles will be limited Joan Jennings ainle limited did that mean that eacher uh session yesterday did not go well or as well as hoped good might not practicing the day the is Christian is still and not just but I would read that as a sign for how he feels not a doctor either but I take that as positive you agree yes I'm not a doctor so there would would there be any way premature to suggest that he could maybe go on IR just make sure he's good for the rest of the year or is it something you never even considered at this point no I've never considered that concerned to play last week so definitely think about four weeks off you see from Sam Sam last year what did you from him here um Lov having Sam here he was an awesome guy um he's been that way every everywhere he's been and we found it out personally here but um always like Sam before he got here just his talent level from college and what he had seen in NFL and I was exactly was good as advertised I me he's such a good athlete so tough could make any throw um and really enjoyed working with him I thought he got better throughout the year you know he was always ready to give more opportunities in the games and something bad happened and um fortunately for Brock we didn't have to do that till the last week but um it was really good having here as number two k I know you've addressed this um could you take me back to the running up the stairs when you thought Brandon might get traded like how was your burst on that I was that really did you really have to Sprint to make sure I mean I had to Sprint because I had a team meeting at 8:30 and I was getting ready for my team meeting and um Brandon just randomly walked in and talked to me at 8:15 very Brandon like to pick that type of time cuz I was trying to get ready for something else so about um 10 minutes in talk to him I realized we need to talk a little bit more when the meeting was over and uh meetings can go while and stuff and I knew we were in discussions a lot with Pittsburgh so um I actually called up to John and he didn't answer picked up on the first ring um so I just want to make sure he wasn't on the other line making any trades um so I ran up there and just said hold on let's talk after this meeting so you have to like barge in no I'm not going to make it more dramatic than already is so if he didn't if he hadn't randomly walked into your office he would have been on this Ste oh no there was no trade done but those were you just never know when that stuff's going to happen you know when you're going through negotiations going through trades like that stuff's that's why it's hard to keep up with all the reports and stuff because stuff is going on but nothing was inate how would you assess Brandon at night on Monday in terms of conditioning and just being able to keep up I thought he did a good job I mean he um never felt like he wasn't conditioned um you know we we rotated them more than usual which definitely helped um but you know I haven't got to talk yet today but sure he was soaring stuff from it but um know the conditioning everything was no Factor kind Monday night I thought Floyd watching that thing over was just amazing the motor the the the football IQ he's a real special player didn't really see him live until last night or until Monday night yeah um now his motor's been he's like that every day in practice and especially for a guy like whatever year it is 10th or something to be able to go that hard in practice every day I don't get how he can keep it up um Staley who was with him in Chicago and the Rams telling us he was like that you could always see it on tape and he's got such a good motor on tape but he knows no other way he loves playing football he keeps it very simple um he likes to come out there every day he goes as hard as he can and the games we just cut him loose and he kind of took over in that way and I think he's a real inspiring guy to watch how much have you studied the Vikings offense and what kind of stands out to you about the way Kevin's doing it over there um I mean they have one game from this year but you know it's you know going off of last year in this game it's you know similar how the Rams were you know Kevin does a real good job just balancing out his drop back game with his play action as Keepers uh they mix in Tempo and hurry up at all times you got to constantly be ready for that um sometimes they're just going fast sometimes they're um making a lot of checks at line of scrimmages but it's it's a very good very good offense um player friendly gives these guys a bunch of chances to make plays and um got to have a lot of respect when he's done there what makes Justin Jefferson the the best wide receiv receiver um um he's I mean way you can cut with his speed there's not there's not an angle he can't really run out at full speed and drop his weight uh he's also Fearless in how he plays his hands are as good as anyone uh I don't know him personally but from what I've heard people have been with them they say Curry's one of the smartest players that people I know say they've been with um he's the full package did you see Sam last year get better every week even though he wasn't playing uh yeah I did you know I think just you know Sam had been in a lot of different offenses and a few different teams and stuff so I think just the more um he always could make plays and stuff but the more he got used to what we're asking and it's hard when you ask some people to do stuff that they haven't done before um because sometimes you got to get worse before you get better um but Sam came in with such a good mindset he was so detailed in what he did really never wavered and really tried to pick stuff up and I thought he came in really good and I thought he got better throughout the year when you saw that he he' sign signed with the Vikings and going to Kevin did you your first reaction well that's a good spot for him yeah I thought it was a real good spot for him um and I was happy for him I was hoping he'd find no no good spots and come back here um but I was happy for him he got this opportunity because Sam more than deserves it Sam's a starting quarterback in this league and should R this week um nothing different the whole team we don't do a full speed practice today so that's unusual for Wednesday early in the year but just two games removed from the from Monday uh we'll go half speed today and we'll just have one full speed practice tomorrow the numbers showed that I was going to say the numbers showed that Mason GE a lot of yards before contact what did your offensive line look like when you watched it again I thought they did a real good job they cleaned up Lanes um there are a lot of good holes for them and then Mason always got more than there was block four so it's a good combination of all 11 doing a really good job and um Mas always doing extra play to 34 y catch what do you call that route is that a a rail what you ask well I did you say a readout I said wheel it's realish whe qualities is that okay you're another was that in any way a new play or like a deration of a new hav you been here man we've had ju that on a bunch um it's look at like play three I think Philadelphia in Co year we just missed it down the sidelines with Nick mull know if we hit it 2019 yeah Pittsburgh 2019 um to go it's been around four years I mean don't you guys have something you can just type in up for exctly how did Jordan hold up physically carries to your knowledge um I mean when I've seen him he hasn't mentioned anything the trainers haven't mentioned anything um that's what I was kind of explaining on training camp that I thought was so impressive having so many guys out and how hard he went each day and um the way his his body really never changed so U he ran so hard in that game and he seems good to go how encouraging was it for you to see Moody have the night that he did after some struggles last year um I thought it was great you I didn't even realize how many he hit till after the game um and I think he got player the week which was more than deserved probably should have gave him a game ball but one hit the crossbar but know it was awesome for him especially I think there was two 50 yard plus ones and that was huge all right guys thank you thank you guys
