Thursday, August 10, 2006: Trent Green Press Conference

Thursday, August 10, 2006,
Trent Green Press Conference

Kansas City Chief quarterback Trent Green addressed media in a press conference Thursday morning in Rodli Commons.

Green answered questions concerning Head Coach Herm Edwards and his thoughts of the new coach so far. Green replied, "Everything he's told us has been true. He gets us on and off the field and makes sure we get the proper time to recover for the next practice and the tempo of practice."

The 13-year veteran from Indiana also mentioned some names he thought was stepping up at the receiver position. Green said that wide receiver Jeris McIntyre probably has the edge for the fourth wide receiver spot because of his play and experience with the team. The quarterback also mentioned rookie wide receiver Dan Melendez playing well and definitely making a push for making the team, or at least the practice squad.

The injuries to quarterbacks Damon Huard and Brodie Croyle will open up a large amount of playing time for quarterback Casey Printers in the preseason game. Green talked about how he feels about the Canadian Football League star.

"Casey is going to get a lot of work and I hope he's ready. Maybe he has communicated down to his family in Texas to see if they can close the roof to help him with the climate control, keep it a little cooler for him. It's unfortunate that Brodie got hurt in practice and won't be playing in this game. Casey's been doing very well, he's been given a lot more reps than I think he ever would have anticipated coming into training camp."
