The "discovery phase" is the exchange of evidence between the parties after a case has commenced. If there are indictments that are sealed, which is often the case in an ongoing investigation, there is obviously no discovery being exchanged between the government and the defendants at that point. It's certainly possible that he just doesn't understand the terminology he's using, but presumably any credible source he has at Justice would not make such an error.
