Branch speaks to CBS-4

Holdout wide receiver Deion Branch gave an interview to CBS-4 in Boston tonight, telling the channel's Steve Burton, "I'm pretty sure everything's gonna work out. Everything's gonna work out."

Branch was at the And1 hoop tour as it stopped in Boston.

Asked if he missed playing, Branch said, "I'm human. I have my days and ups and downs. I realize it's business and what they're doing is business."

Asked if he considered the $14,000 per day he's being fined, Branch joked, "I haven't really thought about it." Turning more serious, he said, "No, you have to (think about it). It is what it is. Hopefully we can do something about it and we can figure out what's what."

Branch said he'd watched the team's first two preseason games and that he believed the offense was running well. It will run better, he added, "When and if I get back."

He then seemed to reassure Burton by saying, "Everything's gonna work out."
