What did Kyren say?
I must have missed that.
After the Arizona loss...
Kyren Williams was asked why he thought the team's
energy level was inconsistent from drive to drive.
He answered:
“I can't tell you, bro. Probably because I'm not out there.
When asked if he wanted a bigger workload like he's had in seasons past:
"I can't really call that. It's not on me," Williams said "But I just think no matter what, we gotta continue to have the energy. You gotta continue to, when plays are made, be excited, be happy so we uplift not only the offense but the defense and the special teams and just being able to have that camaraderie to where we're playing off of each other, and I think that's what is going to allow us to be where we want to be."
Sean McVay said Kyren Williams approached him on his own to explain his postgame comments. McVay said he wasn’t even aware of the comments until Kyren brought them up.
McVay said:
“He’s such an energy for us. He was emotional after the game. I know this guy’s heart. He wants to make sure that he’s influencing and affecting positive change. I think what he said was more of, ‘I just always want to try to be that spark.’”
McVay added that Kyren was frustrated after the game, but his teammates know what he’s about. After Kyren explained what he meant, McVay said he “totally understood where he was coming from” and called him “a great leader for us.”
McVay also said the way Kyren’s comments were interpreted was not what Kyren intended.
