Scott Turner addressing the media. Said Taylor Heinicke played well, but the offense just didn't finish. We have to execute better, he said, and take advantage of opportunities when they present themselves. That cost the team, and it's a tough feeling.

Scott Turner on the GB game: "We did move the ball, but that didn't matter. ... The point of the offense is to score and we did not do that. That cost our team and that's a tough feeling."

— John Keim (@john_keim) October 28, 2021

Turner can see the effect that Chase Roullier has all the time. He makes protection calls and directs the rest of the offensive line. The conversation starts with him, and his reads help dictate how things unfold.

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) October 28, 2021

Turner on Antonio Gibson's fumbles: it's obviously unacceptable. He's aware of that and working on it. Points are valuable, and Turner said the team can't waste them.

Del Rio: "As a group we're playing faster, more certain and together more often. Guys are working really hard and giving great effort."

— George Wallace (@GWallaceWTOP) October 28, 2021

Tim Settle hasn't gotten as many rep so far this year. Having Matt Ioannidis back has something to do with that, but Del Rio has been pleased with what he's seen from Settle in a smaller role.

Asked about the open USC job, Washington defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio says “I’m going to channel Mike Tomlin right now. Did he shut it down or what? I feel really good about being the defensive coordinator for Washington.”

— Washington Football Team (@WashingtonNFL) October 28, 2021

Terry McLaurin is addressing the media. Said he normally likes to focus on one or two things that he wants to get better at. When it comes to practicing something new, he wants to get as many reps on it as possible before breaking it out in a game.

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) October 28, 2021

McLaurin is well-known for taking care of his body. He credits part of that to going to Ohio State, which emphasizes their athletes getting in a routine.

Terry McLaurin tells us that Ryan Kerrigan made a major impact on how he personally takes care of himself. Terry recalled seeing Ryan at the facility early doing his stretching/foam rolling for 30 minutes — and with a stopwatch to make sure he did it for the full 30

Terry McLaurin on the altitude in Denver. Has Asthma so it’s something he’s wondered about… pic.twitter.com/BdvwgDQj6H

— John Keim (@john_keim) October 28, 2021

McLaurin on playing in the altitude at Mile High. It's been on his mind all week. There are some things that McLaurin does to help his breathing already since he's asthmatic and added that he doesn't see it as being an issue.

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWFT) October 28, 2021

This will be Terry McLaurin's first trip to Denver. The receiver, who is asthmatic, said he's been asking teammates about what to expect with the altitude. Charles Leno said he'll feel the difference in the first drive and then should get used to the situation.

— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) October 28, 2021

McLaurin said his confidence in contested catches situations has improved. Said that it was one of his biggest weaknesses in college, but he's learned to attack the ball and hold it through the catch. It was an emphasis in the offseason, and he's proud of his development.

Sammis Reyes at the podium today. The big revelation: His parents dressed 3-year-old Sammis as a clown for Halloween and he scared himself looking into a mirror which basically soured him on the whole Halloween experience.
