What They're Saying: Jaguars preparing for an 'athlete playing receiver' in Davante Adams

Take a look at what Jacksonville Jaguars' players and coaches said about the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of the Week 9 matchup.

On WR Davante Adams:

"He's a go-to guy. He's a guy who has great quickness off the ball and he runs the entire route tree. He's an athlete playing receiver. He's a guy that – I don't know him personally but the way he moves, you can put him at any position, and he'd be successful. 
 He's able to use his quickness, use his speed and he can catch anything close to him." – Jaguars defensive coordinator Mike Caldwell

On TE Darren Waller:

"He does a lot of things well. He's big, number one. He's physical. He runs well. The 50-50 balls are all his. Just a good overall tight end. Can block and he's a handful." – Jaguars Head Coach Doug Pederson

On QB Derek Carr:

"I know a lot about Derek Carr. He's a great teammate. A great player, a great guy." – Jaguars DE Arden Key

On the Raiders' run game:

"I think they've got some really good running backs. Josh Jacobs is a powerful guy, can run. That's the key, is obviously, slowing the run down." – Jaguars Head Coach Doug Pederson

On the Raiders defense:

"From a defensive perspective, they pose some challenges for us. The two guys on the edge, they've got some backers who are flying around. They have some great players." – Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence

"They present a lot of different looks. They do a pretty good job of keeping things in front and then try to let these pass rushers get after you a little bit." – Jaguars offensive coordinator Press Taylor

On DE Maxx Crosby:

"He's relentless. He doesn't come out of the game. 
 Whether it's ducking underneath guys, swimming over guys, changing his rush pattern. He's got a deadly spin move; we've all seen that a number of times. He's just relentless in terms of pursuing the quarterback." – Jaguars offensive coordinator Press Taylor
