Quick takeaways from the players – The main vibes were that the players were rested and looked fresh in the training session, despite landing at 8am this morning (Fri 4th Oct)
Aaron Rodgers
- “Close friendship with Davante Adams, and spent time with him over the summer, but can’t really say too much as could classed as tampering”
- “Pulling for Sam (Darnold), he’s a great dude, one of the NFL Good Guys. He is finally in a system that works for him.”
Quinnen Williams (Tackle)
- “not really a challenge” when asked about this trip – there’s not many jobs where you get to perform in front of a different culture, a different country”
- “Sam Darnold is playing at an MVP level” and that the Vikings are “ a great team and a great defense.”
Garrett Wilson (Wide Receiver)
- “I try not to overthink it and go out and ball. If you can’t show up when it’s time to play then it’s probably not for you.
- Expects the crowd to super lively – he is a Man Utd fan, huge Garnacho fan.
Sauce Gardner (Corner Back)
- Says “it’s been a bit weird. We got the bus earlier and I see that they drive on a different side of the road here, and I thought we were going to get into an accident”
- When asked about Justin Jefferson, he said that it would be an “extreme challenge facing him. He is the no 1 receiver – he is quick, shifty with great hands”
