00:00 And really, we're in the same position with Kenny as we were last week.
00:04 We'll give him a few reps and kind of see where that leads us.
00:07 But just as I said a week ago, in this setting, Mason Rudolph was scheduled to
00:12 be the quarterback for the week and we'll see where Kenny is.
00:15 We have the same mentality as we start this week.
00:18 Obviously, we have a great deal more comfort because of what we've seen in
00:22 stadium for Mason Rudolph and that helps us.
00:27 But we still really are in the same posture.
00:30 He's got the ball to start the week and
00:32 we'll see where Kenny is from a mobility perspective.
00:36 And then kind of go from there and plan day by day based on the things that we see
00:41 from that perspective.
00:42 >> After Mason played the way that he did,
00:46 what would be the reason to go to Kenny if he has 100% health?
00:49 >> Again, I'm not into the hypotheticals.
00:51 That's just a plan that we have laid out for the week.
00:55 It's comforting because it's similar to the front part of last week.
00:58 We'll see where Kenny's availability is and then we'll make judgments from there.
01:03 But it doesn't serve us in any way to talk hypotheticals and
01:07 things of that nature.
01:08 We focus on information that we have and we plan day by day accordingly.
