Q. Probably first real practice in a while, right?
EVAN NEAL: Feels great, just to go out there, get back in the right type of stance -- ain't played right tackle since my sophomore year. So brought back some nostalgia, really good, man. You know, is practice on an NFL team, doesn't get better than that. Definitely my dreams came true.
Q. Can you talk about the transition, what are some of the keys that you're trying to focus on? It's obviously different?
EVAN NEAL: Really just trying to make sure my stance and my set, you know, being on the left side, really just transitioning everything back over to the right. That's pretty much what it is.
Q. What's the difference, your first time in the NFL organization, as opposed to just going out there and playing football?
EVAN NEAL: I'm just going out there and could go what I love, man, just playing ball, try to get better, grasp the playbook, just have fun. Doesn't get any better than this.
Q. Are you a guy that wants to get restless, with all the pads on?
EVAN NEAL: We hit a whole lot at Alabama, Coach Saban, that's a time and place for everything but right now trying to get the fundamentals down and try to get better so I'm just excited so do that.
Q. How much of what they are teaching you fundamentally here is a little bit different, if it's what they want in their scheme versus what you're used to or is it similar because of what you ran there?
EVAN NEAL: Being at Alabama, it's pretty similar schematically. A few nuances as far as verbiage and technology and things like that, but from a technical standpoint, it's pretty much what (indiscernible).
Q. Interacting more with Daniel and Saquon?
EVAN NEAL: It's going to be pretty cool. I'm just excited to go out there and do my pest to help the team for sure. Got a chance to shake Daniel's hand, he's a pretty good guy. Excited to build a relationship with those guys and just help the team.
Q. Saquon said when he looked over and saw you, said, "that's a big dude." What's your reaction?
EVAN NEAL: I'm pretty sure that most people that see me have that same reaction, so that's pretty cool.
