Press Conference


Houston Texans 26, Green Bay Packers 7

Q. How do you feel about the game?

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: I thought it went good. Finally getting some live reps, executing the defense a little bit, the first half, I think we were flying around, and we were having fun.

Q. All the takeaways tonight?

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: That's the goal every game. We try to come in, we have a standard of trying to get at least three. I think we got three tonight. It's a great night.

Q. Seemed like you were reacting -- how did you feel through that --

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: I love it. I love this defense so much. I think it's a mutual feeling like all of us, you see the guy just flying around, the D-Line is going crazy today. Everyone is having just a lot of fun. It was fun.

Q. What Lovie is instilling, talking about attacking -- taking it into the practice field and game --

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: What was it?

Q. Taking it from the practice field to the field.

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: Yeah, taking reps not against our offense, it was a great night.

Q. With turnovers, what does today show about what you guys could do?

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: I think we're nowhere near where we need to be but I'm excited about the future. I'm excited about the season. I'm excited about the guys we have in the room. I mean, you can see it. There's guys flying around everywhere, guys making plays and I think the defense -- the team definitely, but the defense is going to be something special.

Q. Your role?

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: It's training camp, first preseason game, we didn't even have preseason games last year. Just being able to get some live reps and growing with each other. We have a great room. We're all growing close and it's going to be fun. It will shake out but it will be fun.

Q. How do you see the defensive line? What do you notice?

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: To be honest the amount of depth we have at the D-Line is absurd, every position really but at the D-Line, you can rotate any of the guys in. It's definitely encouraging and definitely like inspiring and it's fun to play off of because they can clean up up front and it's a lot of fun.

Q. What do you feel your takeaways are?

KAMU GRUGIER-HILL: I think we've got to look at the film and there's always thing to clean up. We didn't play a perfect game. It's our first preseason game. Just kind of continue drawing in the steps and just putting in the work.
