Every now and then, a quote goes by in a press conference that I don’t think gets enough attention. The last one of those was when Anthony Richardson talked about dealing with an ankle injury throughout the 2022 season. The ups and downs of the offense make more sense viewed through the lens of the playmaking quarterback not being able to trust his ankle every week. I didn’t see a lot made of it, though.
The latest example came from Billy Napier’s press conference following the first scrimmage of spring. A reporter asks him a question with a long lead up about how Graham Mertz fits in the offensive system and how Napier’s second team at Louisiana scored a lot more points than the first one did.
