Drew Lock: "Each day I’ve felt better waking up" | New York Giants

how do you how do you feel physically what exactly are you dealing with um getting better um just a little hip stuff each day I felt better waking up doing more and more out there on the field um happy with where I'm at right now just taking it day by day how did you feel the operation went with your offense when you were on the field the other night operation was good I would say some of the plays obviously I went back uh especially after watching and um just keep getting better keep getting comfortable with everything and um um operation was fine execution could have been better for sure should have been better there's one play Early where it seemed Malik broke open did was that do you know that one which one was it I don't know it was like early in first series and I just saw him standing out there like that I was wondering if he just missed him or it was not plan to go to hammer what Dave said to be a little more specific Dave said there was one was a deeper shot where he said you thought maybe that the safety was over the top gotcha I know yeah I sing normally when you got a single receiver to one side um and they're playing cover two they kind of have a high guy over the top one low in the middle you can risk it you can you can sling it in there if you want um I think early in the game trying to get a roll um feeling out the game maybe if I'm thinking of the one correctly but but you know maybe maybe sure I'm sorry I'm just coming in how are you feeling and Joe Shane said on the broadcast you could have gone back into the game but now you're not practicing so like which are you more towards being out or more could you play uh I've I've been getting better every day um um I'm not me and Daves have talked not ruling out the possibility of playing um again go out there throw see how it feels keep doing that did it today we're going to do it tomorrow do it the next day do it the next day and just if the opportunity is there and we both feel comfortable with it how much have you thrown uh yesterday and today um not like 60 70 or bombs but we're slinging it around is it more your hip that you're yeah or your abs or I would say it's this general area did that guy knee you when he like held up on that hit is that what happened no no no it was actually on the 40 yard fumble um play which was three guys yeah it was that one are you wearing anything like an an added hip guard or um I'll wear rib protector but there's about a 4 in gap there and he was he was perfect he found where we're not padded up so how confident are you that by the regular season whenever that time comes around you'll be you'll be ready to go fine 100% confident there's no no worry in that and how I felt yesterday even how I felt today there's no worry about that did you hear the crowd cheering when the quarterback change happened for us or then Tom no no I didn't I'm sure it could have that could have happened absolutely I mean he played his ass off for this team last year and I went out there and threw a pick I wouldn't wouldn't expect to be boo him when they when they took me out so it is what it is what did you see on that play the intercep oh gosh it's like we were playing with 10 guys out there just miss the safety is what it is it's one of those plays leaves your hand and you want to just you knew it when you let it go did does it hurt to throw it all with it being your side like the Tor um if it didn't I'd probably be out there that's just as simple answer as I can give you if everything was good I'd be practicing no I know but there could be a risk of like getting hit there or something oh no no no you can come punch me right now I'll be all right I was just going to ask is there any worry of like further injury is it more just pain tolerance uh I'd say right now it's probably a little bit of both honestly like I said I'm going to go throw see how I feel doing it talk to everybody just take it day by day have you dealt with anything like this no no this was the first that's why it was so weird to me when I was on the sideline and after I made that throw I was like it was kind of new it was a new feeling um shoulders hands knees it's the kind of stuff quarterbacks deal with it was just a weird hit weird play and something new that I'm having to deal with Drew when um when an offense is missing its primary target like neighbors is out right now how easily can an offense overall adjust to that it would depend on the offense um I think with how we practice today the skill receivers that we have you know after if Malik is down or jaylen's down like they're able to pick up off of each other um Daniel's played with everybody on this on this uh roster right now and um just pick up one guy's down next guy's got to step up and I think with the skill level on this team um we're able to do that pretty quickly as a quarterback is it tough to it's like if a guy's your most explosive player you're probably looking for nine a little bit more like is it tough to retrain your brain like okay he's not there now I'm reading the field a little differently or no no I it can be like that depending on the play that's called but I when you're working progression reads or two high one high reads you know yeah I know Nine's over there but if it's too high and I'm supposed to go this way you know what I mean like certain manto man Concepts we alerting them in manto man yeah that could be a difference but um it just depends on the play you been around obviously heent about a young receiver in the time you've been in what is your take on Malik and and what he brings to the table and how quickly he's getting up to speed as a young guy very impressive um it's going to be going to be a game changer the you know the first day he steps out there um people are going to have to worry about him teams going to have to worry about him that's going to help everybody on this team um he's been impressive now he's got a little a lot of work to do I mean you know he's still a rook he's got a lot that he needs to prove he hasn't done on a Sunday yet so he's got to prove that to everybody and himself but he's a confident guy and he's ready to roll what have you learned this team is obviously looking to put together an offensive line there's a bunch of new pieces guys moved around this summer your left right flip sides what have you learned about this group so far they work good together it's been fun um what ways do you know that like what ways do you know that like how do you how can you tell that you know they work good together countless of things um I mean I can get more specific with you elsewhere but uh they're a good group work well together they're going to keep working well together and uh excited to see where they go last one how much would you get a kick out of seeing Tyree take a couple snaps Saturday if it comes to that that would be funny uh me and him uh train together back and uh getting ready for the combine so I've seen him with the quarterback dreams he's moved on he's he's working with tight end but if he had to man he can get back there and do it the guy can sling him
