Detroit Lions: Jim Caldwell, Players Talk About Loss to Bengals
By Zac Snyder
Dwayne Washington
On his touchdown run in the fourth quarter: “I just gave it all I got. It was the end of the game, but I kind of saw that the defense was fatigued, so we kind of took over our run game from there and it was a touchdown.”
On the importance of making the most of his opportunities: “It’s very important. I have my role, which is running back, so for me it’s trust issues into carrying the ball and getting positive yards. I just have to run the ball and just give it all I got.”
On making his case to make the 53-man roster: “I’m not too worried about that. Like I said, I’m just taking it one day at a time and just doing what I can do to help the team.”
On his comfort level with the offense and his role through two preseason games: “Yeah, I would just say it’s more of me being in my comfort zone, which will just have me slow the game down and then just carry everything on from there.”
On if he feels like the game is slowing down a little bit: “Yeah, pretty much.”
