  • On WR Erik Ezukanma: It's unrelated to last year's neck injury. McDaniel anticipates seeing him, but of course gives no timeline.

  • On today's practice: Team is prepared to work indoors, but will shift outside if conditions permit. Says players were excited to practice inside the stadium and that he'd heard 30,000 tickets had been claimed. That workout was ditched because of the forecast.

  • On WR Tyreek Hill being voted best player in the NFL by peers: "Appropriate. I'm maybe biased but I know it's such an honor to be have all your peers recognize what type of player you are. There's a lot of really, really good players, so it's a tremendous honor. At the same time, it's not a surprise." Adds that at a team meeting earlier today, a clip was shown of Hill making a one-on-one block against a linebacker. "If you want your team to be great, you have to do the little things."

  • CB Jalen Ramsey will be in the orange jersey today.

  • On players expressing a desire to be known as bullies: "Be what you want to be." Says something like that is never determined just with talk.
