On DB Denzel Ward’s and DL Larry Ogunjobi’s Injuries and Status:
“Still in (concussion) protocol as far as with Denzel. I’m anxious to hear. I will probably hear more about that later in the day. Do not know yet. There are still doing some of the tests with Larry right now. There are still doing that. I do not have anything definitive.”
On if it is possible Ogunjobi tore his biceps:
“Do not know it for sure on that. Really, they are doing all of those testing. He is a tough dude. He has had some of those same kinds of injuries before. I have had players with those same similar injuries. We will see the significance of it and the serious of it, but he is a real tough guy. If he can play through it, he is one of the few guys we have that can do something like that, and he did. He kept on playing, kept on playing, kept on playing, kept on playing and kept on playing the game. That is to his credit.”
On it initially seeming Ward may have injured his arm:
“First off, we thought it was a stinger. Then he went through the question and answer stuff, and it was ding dong (knocks head), whatever it is. Then he went into that kind of protocol. I have teased him already today. The tough part of our game is make a better ready and then, ‘What? Oh, you did not tackle low enough again?’ It is one of those things that at that corner position, especially him, you have to be down. It was one of those things right there at the heat of the battle at the point of attack where he was up and a guy kind of dinged him on the side of the head. We will see. He is still in protocol.”
