Terry McLaurin on why he, Chase Young and Dwayne Haskins wanted to say something to Joe Burrow before he left the field: "Still got that Ohio State brotherhood... Under that jersey, you still got that Block O close to your heart."
Flight attendant: “welcome to Tampa home of the Buccaneers…”
Many on flight : “boooooo!”
Flight attendant: “…who are going to get their butts kicked by the Commanders!”
Many: “yeaaaaaa!”
Alex Smith will be cleared for football activity tomorrow, per source. That means he’ll be coming off the PUP list at that time. Quite a remarkable turn.
Dan Quinn just presented London Fletcher a game ball as he did his postgame radio session. London recently lost his wife to cancer. They hugged after the interview. Adam Peters just gave him a big hug too.
Another nice gesture. Rick always wanted to be appreciated for what he had put into his career. I’m just sorry so much of that appreciation flowed out when he wasn’t here. But his family knows and Rick felt it from many prior to this.
This is difficult. As an Ohio State alum I loved what Dwayne Haskins did for the school. As a reporter getting to know him and talk to him many times and getting to know those close to him it’s really tough, knowing the devastating impact on their lives. So young. So damn sad.
Tress Way: "Terry looked over at me in the fourth quarter and we just kind of give a high five and he goes, 'man, this is fun.' I go, this is a lot of fun."
