VP of Player Personnel Will McClay: “Cooper [Beebe] likes to dirt people. I read last night; whatever that means. Glad he is doing it for us. With his ability and can play the guard position – he’s played all over there – and then snap, that ability and that demeanor and that ability – bringing that to the team was something we wanted to do.”
Head coach and offensive playcaller Mike McCarthy: “He will definitely be a part of the center competition. Obviously, he has played mostly at guard, but he has played them all. That was part of the evaluation. He is someone we are very, very excited about. His position flex, as you look at today’s game with the 17 games and you look at our history, you can’t have enough players – let alone linemen – that can play two positions. Yes, he will definitely have an opportunity to compete at center.”
Third-round pick Cooper Beebe: “I would say I’m a pretty nasty guy. I’m a dude that tries to ‘dirt’ people anytime I can but, I’m also a dude that focuses on technique. I have that kind of mindset that I want to dirt dudes anytime I can. So, it’s kind of that nasty playstyle.”
