“I think like a lot of things in life, a lot of people say, ‘just focus on football,'” Garrett said. “But as we all know in our lives, there’s a lot of other things going on in our lives. So, sometimes as a player, a coach, as a football team, you have to focus on this particular thing to address it, to solve it, to move on, so you can get back to the business of football. And that happens with our players and our coaches each and every day — situations they have with their families, whether they’re health concerns or some of the off-field issues that we all deal with in our lives.

“Sometimes you have to focus on those things so you can get back to the business of focusing on football. I think our team’s done a really good job on that.”
