On Tuesday, Sam Darnold and the offense took some deep shots down the field with Riq Woolen in coverage – a couple to Jaxon Smith-Njigba and one to Marquez Valdes-Scantling. On all of those, they ended up being incompletions. Though it seemed like Darnold and the offense were targeting Woolen's side of the field, he didn't see it that way.

"I'm guarding one of the best receivers in the league, which is Jaxon [Smith-Njigba]. And of course, they're going to try to get him the ball and it is my job to prevent him from getting the ball. So other than that, I was just doing my job protecting the deep ball and that's what I did."

Even though Woolen said he was just doing his job, it's still worth noting, nonetheless. And coach Mike Macdonald can tell the extra effort by Woolen is paying off.
