Garrett on getting officiated
According to Garrett, the offense is playing tricks to stop the defense from getting to the quarterback. Garrett said, “It’s not exactly new, it’s just more often. Hell, the Broncos, the Rams a little bit, so it’s that. It’s the slide so that even if I beat the tight end and tackle over sets, I can’t really get inside the tackle. I have to run the long way. I have to go power. They’re making it trickier. Trying to make me get creative out there, but it’s not just me out there.”
