Conference Call with New Orleans Media

What do you think about the way Jairus Byrd’s been playing over the last half of the season?

“I think he has played well over the last half of the season. I think you know we have kind of gone to that three-safety package and we’ve kind of done things that use him a little bit differently. We got him a little bit closer to the ball at times and I think he’s really starting to excel in that role and he’s done a lot of the things that we had hoped he would be able to do for us and I still think there’s still room for improvement and growth there, but I think he’s really played a lot better.
