For Young going from the Philadelphia Eagles offense to Buffalo’s scheme was a big adjustment. In the spring practices Young’s play was a bit inconsistent as it looked like he wasn’t quite trusting everything he was seeing in the pass game. There were also plays in which his natural ability was on display and evident.
“We’ve got some long plays,” said Young. “We’re doing some things out there to showcase a lot of the talent that we have from the backfield to the tight end to the receiver. It’s definitely long, but the coaches do a great job to make sure we get the scripts and go over them, over and over. One thing that’s been helping me out is a lot of film work, seeing the play and then calling the play. And then seeing it on film has been helping me out learning plays pretty fast.”
“My job is to compete for the second job so that’s what I’m going to do,” said Young. “Get in here and study extremely hard with new terminology and things like that. That’s all I can do is play my position and play my role.”
“I feel like we’re a good group together,” said Thigpen. “We’re supportive of one another and if I see something I’m going to tell Vince or if I see something I’ll tell Fitz, or if they see something I would hope they would tell me something. At the end of the day it’s competition, but I’ve also got to worry about myself and take care of my job and the rest will take care of itself.”
