There are some teams that could make quarterback changes. The Seattle Seahawks appeared as one of those franchises because Geno Smith was set to become a free agent, although he signed a big contract extension. Head coach Pete Carroll took to Twitter on Tuesday, although it was to post about another topic.
The NFL Scouting Combine that took place in Indianapolis last week was a great chance for teams to know the prospects better. Not only on-field workouts were part of the event since the interviews with the players were probably even more important.
Multiple players were part of it as guests giving their opinions. One of them was New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner, who was asked about his experience there. His particular answer set the stage for an even funnier response.
What did Sauce Gardner say about Pete Carroll?
The first-team All-Pro cornerback was asked about his NFL Combine of the previous year. These interviews are private, so itâs always interesting when players share some insights. Jets star had a very interesting story to tell.
âI remember it was me and Coach Carroll, he was just like so close to me, he was asking me questions. I was like âMan, itâs getting a little hot in here. He would ask me a question, âWhat do you look at when it comes to a receiver?â. I remember I started off âI look at âŠâ and he would cut me off like âWhat do you look at?â Iâm thinking you didnât even give a chance to answer the questionâ, Gardner said in an interview with NFL Network.
Seahawkscoach Pete Carrollresponded to the CB on Twitter
Seattleâs head coach had a busy week there because the NFL Scouting Combine lasted until Sunday. His answer took time to arrive, but the wait was worth it. âHey @NextGenStats a little help here? Trying to get a measurement between me and @iamSauceGardnerâ, posted Carroll on Twitter with a set of pictures from the 2022 event.
Sauce Gardner had the last laugh
Although the cornerback wouldnât let that just go. As a rookie he matched his words with high-level performance, so he wasnât going to sit back. âThis canât be you that posted this. Imma just assume itâs yâall media team who picked 3 pictures when we werenât by each other and posted it just for the internet lol. And imma keep it pushing. Sincerely, DROY GARDNER xoxoâ, the CB posted to finish the fun altercation.
