With his statement just inserted without knowing the question there is no way of knowing. Maybe the question was about containing Manning and then his statement would make sense. I fell the play its self was just one of those plays where everyone is going full speed and just happened. With his angle comming in on the Manning he probably had no idea he pitched the ball out to avoid the sack.
