Speaker 1: last year when you put the senior film. Um. I

33
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: feel like that's one of the big ways of learning,

34
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:34,199
Speaker 1: is observing either watching film or watching how different guys

35
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: do things. I'm very blessed they have a lot of

36
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: guys with a plan for many years, so you learn

37
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 1: from moon guys soaking things up, learning different techniques. It's

38
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: just good to have the kind of guys that we

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,960

40
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: things and everybody do you feel like you're much further

41
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: along than you were at this point a year ago,

42
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: even though you weren't able to have the reps that

43
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: you probably would have liked. Over the course of the season. Yeah. Yeah,

44
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: obviously because going from rookie year, coming from college to

45
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, so you're definitely being around the guys

46
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: a lot. Being in the NFL period, Um, you kind

47
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: of you get a year under your belt, seeing how

48
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 1: things work, seeing how to play, different concepts of things

49
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: like that. What was the last year like watching them,

50
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 1: watching your teammates, you know, win a Super Bowl? Balancing

51
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: wishing you were out there with them? Um, I mean, honously,

52
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: you want to be out there with you got so

53
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,480

57
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: to talk about this crowd day one, coming out here

58
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: in the sides of the people, the enthusiasm, I mean, personally,

59
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: expect anything less. My fans, our flans always come out

60
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: hard and strong. So uh yeah, saying there was loud

61
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: as an understatement. Honestly, what's it like having Mayo out there?

62
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: May It is a great a great coaching, is a

63
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: great player obviously, um, along with a lot of other

64
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: linebacker coaches that we have. Everybody has their hand in

65
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: the parts everybody has just like us. Everybody got a

66
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: role to player. Doesn't make anything easier to kind of

67
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: listen to him, you know how successful he was. I

68
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: mean coach period, you gotta especially the history we have

69
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 1: we have here, you gotta kind of assume that you're

70
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: getting coached by the best guys. You're not everything is.

71
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: It's topping not be proud of our sets on that.

72
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: So we're just looking to come out here and learn.

73
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: Whether it's uh Grado any other coach out here, we

74
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: just want to come out here and learn. Yeah, does

75
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: your role feel any different this year? I mean it's

76
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: day one, so we can't come we to go out

77
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: to day one, but we just everybody this is our

78
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: first day. We learned each other. Everybody pretty much playing

79
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: something different in some way, shape or forms. We're just

80
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 1: looking at here to come out and compete. How frustrating

81
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: was last season to be playing so well early in

82
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: the year and then to go down for the season

83
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 1: like he did. I mean the football player, you want

84
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: to be out in the field. So not being out

85
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: in the field definitely you feel some type of way

86
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: about it, But you just had to find your role

87
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: find the next thing you grow up. There was a

88
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: handful of you guys last year. We're on the IR

89
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: last year. Did you grow close with those guys since

90
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: you were kind of going through similar things and similar experiences.

91
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's your class in general, So we

92
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 1: were close. We were definitely close. Uh, you want to

93
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: get close to the guys that you were hit early

94
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: with going through rookie Minicamp and things like that. Uh,

95
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: we have a we have a good group. So you're

96
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: looking at combining that group the group we have this

97
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: year along with the guys we have now we had

98
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: a special group of guys here. We're just looking to

99
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: build excited for PATTED practice and Saturday. Aren't we all

100
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: do ourselves as a thumber? So I figured that gem.

101
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, man, yeah, I think I said a lot

102
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: of things a rookie, But I feel like I feel

103
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: like you just come out here and you just find

104
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: do whatever they need, whatever they need you to do.

105
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: I don't do no labels. I'm putting the labels on myself.

106
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 1: This guy's a limit for everybody out here. So you

107
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 1: just go ahead and you just found what you work

108
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: best at and the coaches to put you in the

109
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: right position to make plays.
