AFC Notes: Jaguars, Texans, Titans

Jaguars

Texans

  • Texans HC Lovie Smith on QB Davis Mills: โ€œI am a believer in him and what heโ€™s going to do. He shows up every day. He has recruited other players to come here. I believe in him, Pep Hamilton, second year in the system, so many good things that he did.โ€ (Aaron Wilson)
  • Smith also commented on the team losing S Justin Reid to the Chiefs and returning safeties Eric Murray and Jonathan Owens: โ€œJustin Reid is a good football player, a lifetime friend, excited for him. Jonathan Owens fits the profile of what weโ€™re looking for, Eric Murray, same thing. I believe in him. Heโ€™s smart.โ€ (Wilson)
  • Smith does think the team needs to improve at cornerback before the upcoming season: โ€œWe canโ€™t play the type of football we want to play until we get better at the cornerback position.โ€ (Brooks Kubena)
  • Texans WR Brandin Cooks signed a two-year extension with the team, with Smith noting that Cooks wanted to remain in Houston: โ€œBrandin wanted to be here and he believes in the vision for our team.โ€ (Wilson)

Titans

Titans HC Mike Vrabel said during a recent media appearance that the team doesnโ€™t plan on trading WR A.J. Brown any time soon.

โ€œNot as long as Iโ€™m the head coach,โ€ Vrabel said on The Rich Eisen Show. โ€œI love A.J. professionally, personally. Iโ€™ve gotten to know him well as his coach and enjoy seeing him as much as I possibly can. Saw him here working out here earlier, said hi. As long as Iโ€™m the coach here, I would want to have A.J. Brown on my football team.โ€
