Everything the Jaguars locker room had to say after the loss to the Browns

After the Jacksonville Jaguars’ 18-13 loss to the Cleveland Browns, veterans like wide receiver Christian Kirk and tight end Brenton Strange expressed their thoughts in the locker room.

To see each player speak, watch above.

Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. also spoke after the game. Below is a transcript of what he had to say.

Q: On his emotions after starting the season 0-2?

Thomas:I’m doing well. I think we’ve been good as a team. We’ve got a lot of games left to play. I mean, we’re good as a team, we just know what we have to do. We have to come together and get back on the field next week and get a win.

Q: On his 66-yard reception?

Thomas: “I was able to get behind my defender and Trev (QB Trevor Lawrence) made a great pass and I was able to run underneath it. I was just me, trying to make a play. I reached out to catch it.”

Q: Was his 66-yard reception the spark the offense needed?

Thomas: “Yeah, I was just trying to go out there and make a play and get the crowd involved. I was trying to give us the spark we needed to come out of the game in the second half and move forward.”

Q: Is the offense trying to find some consistency in the first half?

Thomas:Yeah, it was tough. We just have to get through it and execute better. I feel like we got punched in the face. We just have to get through it from the beginning and execute better.

Q: On losing TE Evan Engram to injury before the game?

Thomas: “Yeah, he’s the next guy to play, but losing someone like Evan (TE Evan Engram) does impact the offense. But I feel like we always have to fight, no matter who’s on the field. We just have to fight and do the best we can with the guys we have.”

On the feeling of playing at home for the first time in the regular season?

Thomas: “Yeah, I got to play my first regular season game here, so it was amazing to be able to be on the field with my great teammates. So yeah, it was amazing.”

Q: What was it like running through the tunnel and hearing your name called? Thomas: “Yeah, it was awesome to hear that ovation. Just being able to run through that tunnel for the first time in Jacksonville, it was fun.”
