Brian Daboll (1:27)
Sure. People that will not practice today will be Shane, John Michael, and Andrew Thomas.
SPEAKER_4 (1:38)
It's Daniel Ballinger.
Brian Daboll (1:39)
He will be limited today. Yep, he'll be limited. Saquon will be limited. Saquon will do some teamwork.
Brightwell, McKeithen, Aziz, Evan, and Wandel.
SPEAKER_5 (1:52)
All of them will be limited.
Brian Daboll (1:55)
Yeah, that's okay. Saquon, Ballinger, Brightwell, McKeithen, Aziz, Evan, and Wandel will be limited.
SPEAKER_4 (2:04)
This is the first time Saquon is actually going to get in team reps, getting to do any last week, right?
Brian Daboll (2:08)
Yeah, that's exactly right.
SPEAKER_6 (2:09)
What's the deal?
Brian Daboll (2:10)
Is that something significant? He has a groin.
SPEAKER_4 (2:15)
You said Evan and Marcus?
Brian Daboll (2:17)
Evan will be limited. What are they both dealing with? Marcus is his knee, and Evan is his hand slash ankle.
SPEAKER_4 (2:27)
With John Michael, is that long-term, or do you know?
Brian Daboll (2:31)
Long-term in terms of IR, a couple weeks. No, I don't think it's long-term, but I don't think it's long-term. We'll see where he's at. I think he's making progress.
We're just going to hold him out today. We'll see where he is the next couple days. Could play, but not ready today.
SPEAKER_7 (2:45)
With Evan and Marcus, is that...
SPEAKER_5 (2:47)
Are they long-term or is it kind of day by day?
Brian Daboll (2:50)
No, I think they'll be ready to play.
SPEAKER_8 (2:54)
Given the state of things on the offensive line, is it unrealistic for Q to be up? You know, he's on the practice spot.
Brian Daboll (3:01)
Yeah, so what we'll do with him today is he'll kind of work off the side and get acclimated to some of the stuff, get ready to practice. That's where we're at with Justin.
SPEAKER_1 (3:14)
Pew?
Brian Daboll (3:16)
Probably not.
I'd say he's making progress. I'm sorry. Making progress. I'd say, well, don't have a great answer for you in terms of when he'll be back, when he won't. He's making progress, but not ready yet. Cole, same thing.
SPEAKER_9 (3:38)
Last week, I guess, you know, Andrew tried to, you know, is it correct to say he was a setback for Andrew last week?
Brian Daboll (3:46)
Yeah, you know, he went, he only did a few things, didn't feel right, so we took him out right away.
SPEAKER_9 (3:51)
And he's not able to pick up today?
Brian Daboll (3:54)
No, not right now.
SPEAKER_4 (3:57)
What's next there? I mean, do you think this week is out of the question? Do you have to let it rest for a bit?
Brian Daboll (4:02)
This week out of the question, I don't know yet, Dan. I'd probably say leaning towards no, but not ready to make that determination.
SPEAKER_10 (4:10)
So we just hit you with all the specifics on the offensive line. What's your general sense of concern now with this group that hasn't been playing at a very high level?
Brian Daboll (4:19)
Yeah, gotta go out there and coach you guys that are out there and do a good job with that and then get them ready to play.
SPEAKER_9 (4:30)
Ended up being a lot, you know, quickly moving over the center.
Brian Daboll (4:34)
Yeah, he's a smart guy, knows all our calls, had a bunch of reps in the summer, so it's good to have a guy that plays guard that can play center as well.
