(Marcelias Sutton will be asked to play a bigger role)
Two topics of conversation.
1. Loss of Rodney and what now for RBs.
2. CeeDee's ridiculous one-handed catch & relationship with Marquise Brown.
OK, cop out. I'm saving a bunch of Sutton and Sermon stuff for a Tuesday morning story. I transcribed all of Sutton, but I don't have the Lamb stuff yet.
Lamb did open up about the catch when I asked and had some pretty cool things to say about his social media freezing up whenever he would check it and things of that nature and that he didn't know he could jump that high, etc.
Once done with Lamb, will definitely post some goodies from there.

Reaction to Saturday’s almost-catch — who have you heard from?
I’ve heard from a lot of people, honestly. I kid you not. My social media froze like three times, every time I got on it. I just don’t know what to say to it.
Did you think it would draw big reaction?
No, because I was more focused on did I get my foot in. As the game progressed I’m like, ‘I caught this ball with one hand.’ Then it just blew up when I got back to social media.
When you saw replay what was going through your mind?
I actually jumped higher than I thought. I was pretty up there. I surprised myself to be honest. I just jumped to see if I was able to get to it, then the next thing you know I caught it.
Did you pick up a student newspaper today?
No, but Jet did. He brought it to me. He’s something else, bro. I promise.
He tries to top you? What can he do?
There’s no telling what Jet has in his bag, so I’m just gonna wait until he pull out something pretty spectacular. He’ll probably pull out a helmet catch or something. I’m gonna just be prepared. We always compete. One player do one great thing — for me it’s making a one-handed catch — then him just one-upping me. We just up each other from there and congratulate each other after.
Coach Beamer?
Coach Beamer, he’s like the icing on the cake. He put his little tweaks into the system. But I feel like we pushed each other so much during the spring, the summer and fall camp. With him helping us, he helped us a lot. With that being said, he’s a mastermind at special teams. We’re blessed to have him as well.
