Cincinnati Bengals On SI

00:00Another big time performance for you.

00:07Why did you feel like you were able to be so successful tonight knowing that

00:11every defense at this point stand plan is going to revolve around taking you away?

00:16I was just getting good matches, good leverages all night.

00:21There wasn't too many double teams going on.

00:25If anything, it was probably like two or like two man.

00:33Tomorrow, how nice was it to get a break as a team at the end of that game on the block

00:38punt, kind of a bizarre play, and then to go out as a unit offensively and take advantage

00:43of it?

00:44Yeah.

00:45If we want to finish, that's exactly how we need to finish.

00:46That's a perfect example of finishing.

00:47Even though the block, the kick got blocked, we got to start there first to fix those,

00:54but we get another opportunity with the offense, we got to take advantage and finish it like

00:59we did.

01:00What was going through your mind pre-game when you, Merlin Higgins, walked into the

01:01midfield as captains tonight?

01:02I don't know.

01:03I'm just poised before that game.

01:04I'm clear-minded.

01:05Speaking of pre-game, you were wearing your 7-11 shirt.

01:07What goes into your decisions to wear the 7-11 shirts?

01:08Well, 7-11 is out here.

01:09The base location is here, so I just showed a little support.

01:10They've been looking out for me.

01:11It's as much as I could do.

01:12Zach Crowe, that touchdown pass at the end, he said day one, he installed it.

01:13He said, I'm going to do it.

01:14I'm going to do it.

04:35I'm going to do it.

04:36I'm going to do it.

04:37I'm going to do it.

04:38I'm going to do it.

04:40It's possible.

04:41It's 100% possible.

04:42You've got to play chess in that situation, but it's possible.

04:45Do you want to see on your jersey in the future?

04:48I don't mind it.

04:49I'm not going to say no.

04:52I've played a dozen top games.

04:54Everyone probably did look at me as a captain, so I wouldn't mind it.

04:57You're leading receiver in the league.

05:00You have 15 tacks.

05:02How was the defense?

05:04Were they taking away something else, or did they challenge you in a certain way?

05:09How did that happen that you had so many tacks?

05:12Zach did a good job just moving me around, getting me on good match-ups all day.

05:17The DB has been playing an awful lot.

05:22I didn't really see too much press today.

05:24And Diggs is known for jumping at the line and pressing a lot.

05:29He did to me one time today, so I just had good match-ups all day.

05:33That means you're, I guess, afraid to speak.

05:37Could be, yeah.

05:38Can you talk us through the decision to put a donut on Jim Burns' face?

05:42I was told to do that.

05:43I didn't want to do that.

05:45And then he got me back, so.

05:47Who told you to do that?

05:49I don't know.

05:50I honestly don't know.

05:51One of the Simpsons.

05:52One of the Simpsons.

05:54Yeah, I don't know, man.

05:56It was a yellow donut, so.

05:58Who let the butter smash?

05:59Huh?

06:00Who let the butter smash?

06:01I think he got the best of me.

06:02He smeared it a little too far.

06:06Jermaine, you said it was like a New Orleans play.

06:08Yeah.

06:09Same thing?

06:10Same play, same route, same exact.

06:12It just wasn't on the same part of the field.

06:14Same exact route.

06:15It was basically an out.

06:17It was the exact same play.

06:19Exact same play.

06:21Did they surprise the play off when you had that?

06:24Nah, they started our game.

06:25I was expecting it.

06:29At the end of the game, even in a joking way,

06:32did any of your teammates ask you if you should have slid?

06:35Nah.

06:36You know what's crazy?

06:37I was thinking about it.

06:39Slide, but.

06:44I was thinking about sliding, but I wanted to score.

06:46I'm not gonna lie.

06:47Going for the team record in touchdowns, receiving touchdowns,

06:49is that something you're still chasing as well?

06:51That wasn't in my mind when I was scoring.

06:53I just wanted to score.

06:55I don't even know what the record is no more.

06:5717.

06:59Yeah.

07:0015, right?

07:01Yeah.

07:02Correct.

07:03What was your dance with T after the first touchdown?

07:08Don.

07:09What was he?

07:10He's called Don.

07:11What's his role in that?

07:13He don't have a role.

07:14He tried to have one.

07:15No, no, no, no.

07:16It's just everyone's just getting assertive.

07:17Okay.

07:18Yeah, yeah, yeah.

07:19The cameras showed, and the ESPN feature showed,

07:22your relationship with Brixton.

07:25Brixton, how, given your platform,

07:29how important is that part of what you do in being able to give back

07:33and really lift the spirits of those who look to you as their idol?

07:38Honestly, you know, in that situation, all I could do is just,

07:46I think about my grandmother in that situation because she had cancer.

07:48So, you know, I just, I see her literally her last second.

07:51So just having an opportunity to be around someone who had cancer

07:57and is going through something like that, you know,

08:00it touched my heart for me to get in touch with him

08:03and be around him and put a smile on his face

08:05and just make him laugh and be a kid.
