It's 3 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 1: going good. I'll say, I'm still in the same process 4 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: I've I've been in since I've been here, just trying 5 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: to learn everything and just work hard and just learn 6 00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: from the vets around me. What's what's the most been 7 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,480 Speaker 1: the most surprising thing for you this summer? As you 8 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: if you start off as a pro, I would say, 9 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: how how supportive all the vets are. They're just they're 10 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: just always a helping hand. I could go talk to 11 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: any one of these guys and they're gonna, you know, 12 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 1: point me into the right direction. So I said, that 13 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: was the biggest surprise and the most thing I'm grateful for. 14 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: Were you able to check in with Sony after he 15 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: was traded? Uh? Yeah, of course. Yeah. He's He's been 16 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: a mentor for me why his time here, and I 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna change. Honestly. Do you think you'll 18 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: you'll keep up a relationship with him even though he's 19 00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: not anymore. Yeah, thanks your mother, and we'll go to Matt. 20 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 1: Go ahead, Matt Mutter. When you see a guy like 21 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 1: Sony get traded, you do you immediately feel like, all right, 22 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: your responsibility just got larger because you're that that that 23 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: moves you up the depth chart if not, if nothing else, 24 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: you feel like, okay, that that says something about what 25 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: your role can be. Honestly, like, I try not to 26 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: even get into like the business side of that or 27 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: anything like I'm here, if he was here, I'll still 28 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: be working as hard as I I would work after 29 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: whatever happened and whatnot. So I don't think that really 30 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: changes anything for me. I just know I gotta I 31 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: gotta work hard. I wouldn't even say harder or anything 32 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 1: like that. I just gotta work hard and just stay 33 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: focused at the task at hand. How did the first 34 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: two preseason games show you what what it was that 35 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: you needed to work on, or what or what it 36 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: was that intended to give you a feel for where 37 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: you were in terms of your development for being an 38 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: NFL running back. Oh well, I mean I noticed a 39 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: couple of things. But like I go against I feel 40 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: like the you know, the most competition while while we're 41 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: in practice just practicing against our defense. So I know 42 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: it's a lot of my flaws there, and that's where 43 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: that's where I know it's my most of my flaws 44 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: and for the most part, what flaws did you notice? 45 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: And and and you feel like they've gotten better? Oh yeah, 46 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: I mean I think I'm just gonna keep that between 47 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: like me and my coaches things like that. But yeah, 48 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: it was just some flaws and I feel like I'm 49 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: getting better at them, chipping away. Thanks.

He'd been 53 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: here for a while, so he's seen a lot of backs. 54 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: He knows what it's supposed to look like, and you 55 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: know the steps a person needs to take, especially a 56 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: running back, to be successful in this league.
