Commanders
Commanders RG Samuel Cosmi has improved his play every season in the league and took the biggest jump last year after the birth of his daughter. Cosmi talked about how having a child gives him purpose and how it helps him on the field and off.
โThe type of like love you have for a child is insane,โ Cosmi said, via Ben Standig of The Athletic. โ(Parenthood) also teaches a lot of patience and care. I love being a dad. It also puts a perspective on life and what it is all about. A bigger thing Iโm fighting for every day I get on this field.โ
โ(In 2023), I was able just to be myself. Iโm a no-BS type of guy. So if Iโm, if Iโm screwing up on something, Iโll obviously take my (share of the) blame. โฆ If weโre not doing well in certain aspects, why not be honest? You guys see it. We see, everybody sees it. If weโre doing good, Iโm gonna say weโre doing good. This is a business at the end of the day. The hardest people that we have to (impress) are ourselves. We have to be our biggest critics.โ
Cowboys
When asked whether he is optimistic about getting a deal done with Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb, owner Jerry Jones said he expects the two parties to meet again in the near future but doesnโt want to speak on Lambโs behalf.
โWell, I think I am and when I say that, it doesnโt sound too promising. The facts are that I believe weโll come together. I donโt want to speak for him. Thatโs what Iโm trying not to do. But we wouldnโt have offered him what weโve offered him if we didnโt want him to be here,โ Jones said, via Todd Archer of ESPN.
Jones reiterated that he feels theyโve had โpromising talksโ with Lambโs camp.
โI donโt mean that to be insensitive to our fans or to CeeDee, but weโre in good shape there and we are having promising talks,โ Jones said. โYou say, โWell, why do you keep talking? Why donโt you do something?โ Again, as in anything, it takes both of you there at the same time. But I believe itโs got the proper amount of everything โ emphasis, importance โ for everybody involved here and weโll see how it goes.โ
Eagles
Heading into his second season, Eagles CB Kelee Ringo is beaming with confidence on the field. Ringo talked about what heโs done to improve and his desire to be great.
โI really feel like playing to my strengths is something that Iโve been continuing to grow on,โ Ringo said, via David Maialetti of The Philadelphia Inquirer. โEvery single time I line up, I just want to be a force to be reckoned with. Man, Iโm playing to my strengths and trusting my abilities. Iโm trusting my experience so I can make plays.โ
โEvery single day is an evaluation. So I want to just come out here and give my best foot forward, no matter if itโs in the meeting room, the training room, taking care of my body, come out here before practice, man, just working out so when I come out there on the field, Iโm putting my best self out there.โ
