PHILADELPHIA DeVonta Smith sat at his locker taking questions on Thursday.The Eagles receiver, wearing a black Eagles sweatshirt with the hoodie pulled about halfway up to cover his head, turned about halfway on his stool to face reporters who seemed particularly interested in getting his take on not having any catches in Sunday’s season-opening win over the Lions.He was asked three different times, three different ways about not having a catch.Each time, Smith responded: I dont know what youre talking about.The offense obviously ran through A.J. Brown in Detroit, with 10 catches and 155 yards in his Antonio Brown Jersey Eagles debut.Smith used the clich about just controlling what you can control.I cant control if the balls coming to me or not, so you always have to do your job, J.J. Wilcox Jersey always do the right thing and if it comes to you make a play, he said.The plan was to go out there and execute our game plan. It just happened to be his day. Any day it can be anybodys day You never know whose day its going to be.Brown said that it was just his day, that next week it might be Smiths turn, or Dallas Goederts turn.We know we have weapons on offense, he said. We have a lot of skill players on offense, so just trying to get everybody the ball.Smith may or may not have been happy about not having any catches. Hes a tough read.Scroll to ContinueHe is, however, known for being a team player, so he will be content doing whatever he needs to do as long as the Eagles continue to win.Youre happy for him, he said when asked what goes through his mind when another receiver is having the kind of day Brown did. You try to do whatever you can to keep your man away from him.”I mean, he could have a long touchdown Joe Gilliam Jersey and break it, then your man can run over there and make the tackle. So just try to hold your guy where he is so (A.J.) can continue to eat the way hes eating.Smith also took some blame for not having Javon Hargrave Jersey any catches.I feel I was a little sloppy, he said. I feel like I couldve been a lot better. I feel like this week, thats what its all about.Asked what he meant by sloppy, he added: Just first game, just going out there, you dont know quite what to expect with your first opponent because you dont know if theyre going to run the same thing.”You dont have too much film to watch. Its hard to just go out there and go off what you see on film because the film might not be as accurate. Just go out there and get a feel for it.Browns day could open up things more for Smith if a defensive coordinator decides to not let Brown have another day like he did in Detroit.Smith, though, wasnt so sure about that.It depends on the defense T. J. Watt Jersey what they like to do, he said. If they have guys that want to travel or guys that dont travel, thats up to their team, their defensive coordinator however they want to play that.It will be up to Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Ed Donatell to decide how hes going to play it when the two teams clash on Monday night at Lincoln Financial Field.
