There's one football and there's a lot more talented targets.

And how that all works out, where they are, I can't tell you where everybody is in different progressions.

So I know at some points it was slow, some moments towards the end of the season it was amazing.

I think when you looked at the production across the board of all of our guys, it came out to be pretty even in terms of targets and yards.

So I thought he did a really good job.

I know Ben was very intentional with getting the football to create opportunities.

But when you have Colson start to pop up, Luther, Cole, Rome was going through different things throughout the season, but started hot early.

So unique situation overall, but I know we were happy with him throughout the season.

What was your tone with him in the exit interview, just setting him up for what he can expect in the future?

Yeah, very similar to the other guys.

Went through the season.

The next meeting, we also want to know what they need from us to help them be successful.

But real positive conversation with DJ and really everybody on the roster.

Yeah, you know, when we first got Dennis in, it's really for all the coaches, position coaches, coordinators.

They came in and talked about what they need, like what's the prototype.

I knew from what Dennis was bringing, scheme change over the last few years, it was going to take a little bit of time to get exactly what we needed.

But as you go through that season, you ask more questions.

You sit in the weekly e-mails of our roster all the way to last week here and then go through their UFA stacks and inserting where our players line up in there, both guys under contract and not.

You get more and more clarity as you go through.

So I feel pretty good about that.
