He was expected to take on a bigger role in the absence of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/rivals\/vernell-brown-iii-152985\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vernell Brown III<\/a><\/strong>, who was ruled out for Saturday\u2019s matchup.

They\u2019ve shown a lot of renewed energy. Attitude\u2019s been fantastic, and again, just we\u2019ve been kind of preaching to the team, making sure that we take ownership as a team, be a player-led team, and they\u2019ve done a fantastic job coming back, preparing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had a great practice, the first two days of practice have been great, and we got to have another great one today. Obviously we want to continue to prepare until the foot hits the ball on Saturday, but overall, so far, it\u2019s been a pretty good atmosphere, with these guys getting back on the field and wanting to play next to one another.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After taking a massive hit on what was later called a targeting penalty, Florida wide receiver Dallas Wilson&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":350081,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5135],"tags":[5229,1596,41430,358,3187,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-350080","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-dallas-wilson-25-tampa-bay-tech","11":"tag-texas","12":"tag-tx","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-united-states-of-america","15":"tag-unitedstates","16":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","17":"tag-us","18":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115479580828918579","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350080","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=350080"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350080\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/350081"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=350080"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=350080"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=350080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
