When asked about his performance against Wellington, Silva said:
“I feel like as an individual I played well,” Silva said. “But I definitely have a lot of room to improve and will make huge strides throughout the season. I will show the county why I’m a top LB. Our team had its ups and downs last Friday. Our defense played very well, but we have a lot to work on offensively and will be ready this Friday.”
