Head Coach Jay Gruden

On injuries:
“Out will be Spencer Long, knees; Jordan Reed, hamstring; Terrelle Pryor, ankle. He will see a specialist on Monday. Questionable will be the rest of them. We added [Quinton] Dunbar to the list. He missed practice today with an illness and a stomach virus or something. But [Trent] Williams, [Zach] Brown, [Ryan] Grant, [DeAngelo] Hall, [Matt] Ioannidis, [Anthony] Lanier, [Shawn] Lauvao, [Montae] Nicholson, [Ty] Nsekhe, [Niles] Paul, [Brian] Quick, [Brandon] Scherff, [Quinton] Dunbar – all questionable.”

On WR Terrelle Pryor Sr.:
“He's going to repeat and go see the specialist on Monday.”

On if next week's Thanksgiving game impacts decisions for injured players this week:
“As far as to this game? It doesn't play into it at all. We have to take care of this game first of all and then we will worry about Thursday [on] Thursday. Get as many guys as we can ready to play and the ones that can play and are able, we'll play them.”

On if T Trent Williams could be too sore to play both this Sunday and next Thursday:
“That could be an issue, yes. But, like I said, we are going to try to get him ready for the Saints and then see how he feels for the Thursday game.”

On if there is a certain position group that he is concerned about the most with injuries:
“It's always the offensive line right now, without a doubt. The question is if you dress seven or eight of them and that affects your 46-man deal. So we will have to figure that out and get a better gauge tomorrow morning and see how they are doing walking around and go from there.”

On if Brian Quick and Ryan Grant still dealing with concussions and how that impacts the wide receiver group:
“Yes, and now with Pryor being out, yes... Fortunately we have [Jamison] Crowder and we have Mo [Maurice Harris] and Josh [Doctson]. They are three healthy guys and then I'm hoping to get one or both for the game, Grant and Quick.”

On how RB Byron Marshall has practiced this week and the plan for him on Sunday:
“[He's] very smart, very smart. He can also return kicks, which is a plus. We will see if we can get him in the game a little bit, but he picked it up quickly. Randy [Jordan] has done a great job with him.”

On Marshall's versatility and ability to split out wide:
“Yeah, that's what drew us to him, quite frankly. I think this day and age in pro football, you've got to have that versatility at running back. We have a good banger in Samaje [Perine] and Rob [Kelley] was that way also. Then to have Chris [Thompson] and another guy like him is a benefit. But he is 220 pounds, so I think he can do a little bit of both.”

I think the Skins will be able to do some stuff with Byron Marshall that the Aint's ain't prepared for. How ready he is and how many snaps they can use him for is the question but a good addition as the season progresses.
