You're gonna have an opening stasion and then just do our still. We're going to take a handful of questions and get back.
Good morning friends. You know, just like I told you guys a few days ago, there was a you know, it's a process. UH as far as selecting who the starting quarterback is, UH, we have decided or I have decided that Jacoby Brissett will be our starting quarterback UH this season now and saying that as an organization, we're one hundred percent behind Jacoby. There is no you know, you got a guy right here, you got.
A guy right there.
We're one hundred percent behind Jacoby. And I had an opportunity to talk to Drake, I had an opportunity to talk to Jacoby separately and also together, and I feel like we're all on the same page. From an organizational perspective, You know that you had the.
Decision, and that was your decision. What ultimately led.
You to Jacobin sec There are a lot of factors that led to this choice. I think, you know, the hard part is thinking in the short term and the long term at the same time. As an organization, know, we feel like Jacoby gives us our best chance to win right now.
We can start quarterback this seasons.
I don't I don't want to get into hypotheticals. You know, we can't go into the season saying, well, he's gonna go X amount of weeks, like, look, as long as Jacoby's going out there performing the way that we all have confidence in him doing, uh, he'll be our quarterback this season.
