When I got to practice this week with the defense, the pressure of me coming back and playing, all of that was gone. As soon as I touched the field with the defense today, I was like, “I’m out here now.” I’ve got to treat this game as any other game week. I can’t be like, “Oh, it’s the Chiefs, oh man.” No, it’s another game for me.
Some would say it’s fate with my connection to my hometown and getting injured and coming back for this game, it being a Monday night game, an important division game.
