I've been a part of some of those trades in my past where you move on from a guy and they're not necessarily going to a great situation.

So

I'm happy for him.

And yet, I feel like it was probably the move that we needed to make.

Opportunities start to show up now because DJ had the most skins on the wall in terms of production throughout his career and so now that opens some windows, some targets.

Where does it get distributed?

You already mentioned Rome and Luther, certainly, but also it's a competition between the receiver room and the tight end room and the running back room.

I think it's going to be really healthy for our guys in the spring in the training camp to look to carved roles for themselves and see how they can be featured in our offense.

It was disappointing with some of his drops last year.

What did you see in that regard?

How do you get that?

Whose drops?

Rome.

Rome?

You know, that's something.

that we'll talk to him about I don't think that was a thing with him coming out and so I don't want to want to speak that into existence you know that's something as an entire offense we're gonna emphasize here in the springtime getting back to our fundamentals back to the basics as simple as that sounds and catching the football is part of it and so we'll make that a big point of emphasis and I think we'll see improvement from that

It's one of those things, both him and Colston, as young players, as rookies, that didn't have a full offseason last year.

It took us a little bit longer to get them going.

really the production that we had hoped for.

And so by mid-season, the confidence had grown.
