What they’re saying

“I think Brady (Russell) [Seahawks fullback] was standing over by it and we're just both like, well, it didn't look like anyone else was going to do it. I had to dump a little bit out because it was so full, and it was hard to find him. He was kind of lost in the wash a little bit once the game wrapped up.”
