AFC Notes: Colts, Jeff Saturday, Texans, Titans

Colts

Colts owner Jim Irsay expects to interview plenty of candidates for the team’s head coach position once the season ends, including interim HC Jeff Saturday.

โ€œIโ€™m looking forward to the interview process,โ€ Irsay said via ProFootballTalk. โ€œI think Jeffโ€™s a candidate but thereโ€™s a lot of great candidates out there. I think there are a lot of great candidates in college. I think the pool needs to be broadened somewhat more. There are some great college coaches that may be capable. There are some unknown coaches that may be capable.โ€

Texans

Texans QB Davis Mills said he and QB Jeff Driskel communicate frequently on the sidelines and process what they’re seeing together.

โ€œThereโ€™s a lot of back-and-forth on the sideline, making sure we were seeing things the same, kind of bouncing ideas off each other,โ€ Mills said, via Texans Wire. โ€œObviously, our play calls werenโ€™t the exact same, so weโ€™re not seeing the exact looks.โ€

Mills explained that it’s a huge benefit to be able to communicate with another quarterback who’s getting live reps against the same defense.

โ€œFrom the mind of the quarterback, a lot of times you can only relate to what other quarterbacks are thinking,โ€ Mills said. โ€œWhen you have somebody to talk to whoโ€™s also getting live reps, live bullets flying at them in the game, it helps.โ€

Titans

Titans OL Dillon Radunz has received reps at left tackle in practice this week and admitted that he is much more comfortable playing at tackle than guard.

โ€œObviously, I played tackle for five years in college, and I only played guard for about a year and a half, so I do feel more comfortable at tackle,โ€ Radunz said. โ€œDoesnโ€™t mean I donโ€™t feel comfortable at guard but I definitely always feel more comfortable [at tackle].โ€
