| 0:00.0 | Aaron, how worried are you about Van Ginkle and Harrison Smith's injuries? |
| 0:10.4 | I'm not sure with Van Ginkle, I think probably not a lot. |
| 0:14.1 | He was out there every day, but Harrison Smith, it's not an injury. |
| 0:18.7 | It's an illness, at least from our understanding. |
