Coach Hunt on Marques: "Marques is a player who has improved every year he's been here. He has played multiple positions in the defensive secondary and this year really became a leader. Things kind of go better when he's in there. He helps get people lined up and get things called. He has played quite a bit on special teams but the last couple of years has become a really solid contributor for our defense – and one of our more physical players. He brings it when he tackles and he will change the momentum of a game."
