Head Coach Jay Gruden
On the injury report:
“Doubtful: DeSean Jackson, shoulder. Questionable: [Morgan] Moses ankle; [Will] Blackmon, thumb; and Duke Ihenacho, concussion.”
On if S Duke Ihenacho is out of the concussion protocol:
“He’s been cleared to do practice and then we just have to monitor him, very similar to the rest of the guys.”
On if Ihenacho has another step in the concussion protocol:
“No, he’s been cleared for practice but we still have to monitor him every day, just make sure he’s OK.”
On if WRs Ryan Grant, Rashad Ross and Maurice Harris could play in place of WR DeSean Jackon:
“Yeah, and then you’ve got [Jamison] Crowder who can also play in base downs. So we’ll make do. [Rashad] Ross can be the fifth receiver if he can’t go.”
On if Jamison Crowder could play in Jackson’s place:
“In base he can, yeah. Base, we can mix it up with him and Ryan Grant, and obviously Maurice [Harris] and [Rashad] Ross. We have five good ones if he can’t go.”
On what is left to determine about Jackson’s status:
“Tomorrow – see how he’s feeling tomorrow.”
On what they need to see for Jackson to play:
“Well, he knows the offense and he know what to do and all that stuff. Now it’s just a matter of how he’s feeling with his strength. We’ll see. He hasn’t had any practice this week, which is not good, but when you’re a veteran like he is, you can make an exception for missing a practice from time to time.”
On if S Will Blackmon can return kicks with his thumb injury:
“No, he won’t be a kick returner for us. Not with a cast on his thumb.”
On if Rashad Ross could fill in in the absence of Blackmon at kick returner:
“Rashad could be back there, yes. And then backup punt returner – Pierre [Garçon] could be the backup punt returner.”
On if OL Vinston Painter took first-team reps:
“Oh, yeah, he got a lot of reps, especially on Wednesday when Morgan couldn’t go. He got a lot of reps. It’s been good. He had a lot of good work this week.”
On if he is optimistic about RT Morgan Moses playing Sunday:
“I’m very optimistic, yes. He had a good day today, so I’m optimistic.”
