Fred Jackson just did a nice interview on ESPN's 1st Take.
Here are some of the highlights of what he said:
On Gailey:
Biggest difference vs. Jauron is how hands-on he is. He gets into the huddle and listens to the call, then comes back to the huddle after the play and explains what you could have done better.
On QB spot:
Says he's played with all 3 and all 3 are capable and the best man will win job. It will be exciting to see these guys battle and anyone on the team is willing to go to battle with any of the 3 QBs. Doesn't sense a favorite and says Gailey has kept things close to the vest and all have been getting same amount of reps at practice. They have all done a "phenomenal" job considering the situation they are in.
On RB Competition:
Will be heated and will make each other better. Just like him vs. Lynch made each other better. We're all capable of making plays. We'll all bring our A-game when we get out there.
Advice to rookies:
Stay hungry. You won't get as many reps as you did in college. Spiller can make a big play at any time. I tell him to always try and make a big play whenever he touches the ball.
On playing in AFC East:
Not frustrating at all (playing against all that talent). You want to play against and compete against the best. The better talent you play, the more you want to beat those guys. We have a lot to prove and we want to go out and win the AFC East.
Talked about playing at D-III and making it to NFL. "A lot of hard work."
If there was a movie about you, who would play you?
Says he has a twin that would love to play him in a movie. Says his bro can do anything he can. But his wife swears Samuel L. Jackson is his real father because they look so much alike.
