Tee Higgins on Fractured Rib, Potentially Playing Against Seahawks

Transcript

00:00 Not sure yet, but looking promising.

00:03 - You've obviously been out there the past couple of days.

00:05 How are you feeling?

00:06 - Feel pretty good, you know what I'm saying?

00:07 Going out there, catching the ball,

00:09 getting back out there with the team feels good.

00:12 - What's been the hardest part about playing with this,

00:13 just practicing with a fracture group?

00:15 - It's really just tolerating the pain.

00:21 But it's gonna be like this probably for the rest

00:25 of the season 'til I can heal up for months.

00:28 So, but, I mean, it is what it is.

00:30 And I mean, I'm here to win, so.

00:33 - If you play, do you plan on wearing any extra padding

00:37 or anything around the area?

00:38 - I don't know, man.

00:40 I feel like that's gonna restrict me.

00:42 So I just feel like if I play, I should just play, yeah.

00:45 - Do you feel like you could play today

00:46 if you had to play today, today?

00:47 - I feel like I could play last week.

00:49 But, you know, it's all about resting

00:51 and letting it heal up first

00:53 before you get back in that action, so.

00:55 - Are you feeling any pressure maybe to come back quicker

00:57 because it's a contract year for you?

00:58 I mean, is that, how much does that kind of play into you?

01:00 - What's that?

01:01 - Do you feel any extra pressure to maybe come back earlier

01:03 than you would because it's a contract year?

01:05 How much of that?

01:06 - Nah, I don't feel no pressure at all, man.

01:08 You know, at the end of the day, bro,

01:11 I just wanna just help this team win,

01:13 help this organization win,

01:15 and I'll just come out on top at the end of the day, so.
