there are a lot of different factors that go into it,Womens Carl Nassib Jersey,“I thought he played better than EJ [Manuel],Authentic Corey Coleman Jersey,” said Head Coach Jack Del Rio postgame. “They’re obviously in a battle for the backup spot,Womens Joe Haden Jersey, and I think tonight Connor was better in the backup role. Either one of them weren’t as sharp as they were the first time out. So,Womens Corey Coleman Jersey, but I thought Connor played well tonight.”

But,Authentic Carl Nassib Jersey, as offensive coordinator Todd Downing stated, the competition is apparently pretty close.

but the both have progressed so much in this offseason,“It’s a great competition,Womens Emmanuel Ogbah Jersey,” Downing explained. “The cool thing is both those guys have approached it with such a great attitude. They’ve both taken strides and at times one guy has taken a bigger stride than the other,Authentic Joe Haden Jersey,this camp. It’s going to be fun to see how it goes down the stretch here.”

This third preseason game could be make or break for one of these two players,Womens Cody Kessler Jersey, and both Manuel and Cook will look to take full advantage of whatever reps they wind up getting against the Dallas Cowboys.
