Mike McCarthy Press Conference Transcript - Dec. 26

(How much did Pickett do?)

Ryan Pickett's participation today was with the jog-through. Ryan was a workout situation in Pittsburgh. I just completed talking to Dr. McKenzie and Pepper Burruss about his situation.

(How has Mason handled the week and do you expect him to rebound?)

Mason has had a good week, a good week of preparation. He had the opportunity to kick outside Wednesday. I just want to say it again: I have all the confidence that he'll get over this hump that he has created with his opportunities that he did not hit in the past couple of weeks.

(How is Trevor Ford?)

Trevor Ford, he will be a game-day decision also. He didn't do as much today as I had hoped, but he is responding from the treatment. We don't have a lot of history with Trevor in this situation, so we're going to have to get more information off of him tomorrow.

(So what will you do in the sub packages?)

Brandon Underwood has practiced all week, and obviously Josh Bell. That's the direction we can go
