COSTA MESA, Cal.—The Las Vegas Raiders have come to California, Costa Mesa, specifically for training camp, and as always, where the Silver and Black go, so do we.
With the 2024 NFL Training Camp moving into the dog days, today we offer superstar DT Christian Wilkins and everything he said from training camp.
You can watch the entire press conference below:
The Raiders are fortunate to have Antonio Pierce as their head coach. Here is a partial transcript of his most recent press conference.
Q: You mentioned that when camp broke for mandatory minicamp you said when we get to LA, we don't want to take any steps back, you want to just hit the ground running. Do you feel like so far through two practices that's how it's been?
Coach Pierce: "Yeah we are. I think it's been really two good practices. I think our guys have done a good job in the playbook. I told them the mental part is on them, they need to learn the playbook, they did that over the break, and they've done a good job preparing. We have meetings in the morning just to get us ready for a fast start, but they do a good job of bringing the meeting room to the field. And our leaders are really stepping up, they're holding everybody accountable. So, if you’re a guy that does not really focus or pay attention, or you have any kind of mental lapse, you get called out right away."
Q: Yesterday, Jack Jones and Robert Spillane both spoke a little bit about the lack of respect and the disrespect that the team is getting, that you're getting, and they're using it asfuelto the fire. As a former player, how fine is that line between using it as fuel and also kind of like you got to not listen to the noise?
Coach Pierce: "Well, I think it's hard in today's world because they have access to everything. They are going to find out one way or the other, through social media, somebody's texting you and telling you. As you know, our team is very outspoken and when they feel something, they talk about it. But I think they both said the right thing, that we got to go out there and change the narrative. And that's what our plan is."
