Reid Blankenship took on the responsibility of wearing the green dot and calling plays for the Philadelphia Eagles for the first time during Monday's 33-25 win over the New York Giants, and he spoke about what went into that.

“It was a fun experience,” Reid Blankenship said, via Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia. “I kind of like being the vocal guy out there. It made me feel confident that they trusted me enough to be able to relay the calls back and forth.”

Blankenship made the 17th start of his career on Monday against the Giants, but it was his first time calling plays and wearing the green dot. He described the toughest part as getting the play communicated to everyone on the defense, then getting back to where he needed to be in coverage.

“As a safety, you have to make the call and then get back in coverage,” Blankenship said, via Zangaro. “Sometimes, I could feel the Giants break the huddle and I'm like, ‘Oh, I got to get back.' On the sideline, [Fletcher Cox] said, ‘You're doing a good job. You've got time.' So after that conversation, everything kind of settled down and I enjoyed it.”

The win against the Giants was not the prettiest, but it was what the Eagles needed to snap a three-game skid. Now, the Eagles will finish the season with a game against the Arizona Cardinals, then a rematch against the Giants. If the Eagles win the last two, they will be the NFC East champion. Hopefully Blankenship gets more comfortable in that role with the green dot heading into the playoffs.
