WEBVTT - Press Pass: Malcolm Jenkins

0:00:07.360 --> 0:00:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Not much. Obviously, this is a Tuesday, so I hadn't

0:00:10.760 --> 0:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>had a chance to go all the way back through

0:00:12.320 --> 0:00:15.240
<v Speaker 1>all the games. But I mean he's been pretty consistent

0:00:16.440 --> 0:00:19.639
<v Speaker 1>just watching them the last two weeks. He's been able

0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:23.119
<v Speaker 1>to get their offense in some advantageous runs. When he

0:00:23.200 --> 0:00:26.360
<v Speaker 1>sees a box counting that he likes, he'll run it.

0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:28.920
<v Speaker 1>If not, he'll change the plate to a pass or

0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 1>just little quick um, you know, dart to one of

0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:34.760
<v Speaker 1>the receivers and let them run with the ball. So

0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:37.559
<v Speaker 1>you've got to make sure that that you're not, you know,

0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:39.320
<v Speaker 1>tipping your hand and everything that you're doing. If you

0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:43.400
<v Speaker 1>show him, you know, the look too early, you know,

0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:45.559
<v Speaker 1>he'll he'll carve you up. So we got to do

0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:48.199
<v Speaker 1>a better job of of kind of making him a

0:00:48.240 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 1>little bit unsure, and we got to get to him.

0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:53.000
<v Speaker 1>The short passion game is something that they do really well,

0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>getting the ball out of his hands, uh and into

0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the playmaker's hands. But he's still efficient, still smart quarterback

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:03.279
<v Speaker 1>has the playbook at the line of scrimmage. Uh. And

0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, obviously last time we played it didn't order

0:01:06.600 --> 0:01:09.240
<v Speaker 1>to start out. You know, they came out firing. So

0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:11.360
<v Speaker 1>we got to be able to start fast and make

0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:13.560
<v Speaker 1>sure that that that we muttered that look up A

0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:18.199
<v Speaker 1>little bit earlier weeks, some other guys putting. Richard Sherman

0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.120
<v Speaker 1>announced pobot what they think of Thursday nine games? What

0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:24.840
<v Speaker 1>do you think? Yeah, Thursday night games aren't in the

0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:28.120
<v Speaker 1>interest of the players. Um, but there's money in it,

0:01:28.240 --> 0:01:30.560
<v Speaker 1>and if it comes down to us and the money,

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:33.320
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna take the money. So uh, you know what

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.480
<v Speaker 1>we got a job to do is you know, we

0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:38.720
<v Speaker 1>we signed up to play sixteen games, whatever day of

0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the week those games fall on, so we play. I

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:43.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know how much you get a chance to watch

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:45.479
<v Speaker 1>him because he's on the defensive side of the ball.

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>But Landing Collins, Um, what do you think in his

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 1>game he took a big step from year one year Yeah,

0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the most impressive thing. That is the

0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 1>improvement that he took from year one of year two. Um,

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.040
<v Speaker 1>I think you know, some of the supporting cast is

0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:00.200
<v Speaker 1>playing a lot better than that's allowing him to make

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 1>some more plays. Obviously they upgraded that corner, um JPP

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 1>being back to get a little bit more pressure with

0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:11.119
<v Speaker 1>their D line. But I mean he's you know, he's

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:14.400
<v Speaker 1>making plays in the in the past game. Uh, he's tackling.

0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 1>He's always been a great tackling in the box safety.

0:02:16.960 --> 0:02:19.080
<v Speaker 1>But he's showing a little bit more range, a little

0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 1>more versatility this year. And I'm making a lot more plays.

0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:24.079
<v Speaker 1>So I won't I won't be surprised to see him

0:02:24.240 --> 0:02:27.080
<v Speaker 1>in the Pro Bowl, ilcome overuld't me to finish these

0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 1>last few games with wins. I mean it's huge. Uh.

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're in a huge side right now, so

0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:36.679
<v Speaker 1>we want to We're evaluated on wins and losses. You know,

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:41.000
<v Speaker 1>playing in simple so um, you can never be okay

0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:45.079
<v Speaker 1>with losing, and and right now we're fighting, um to

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.120
<v Speaker 1>to get a win, especially the last two weeks. You

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 1>can go out on a positive note. You can, you know,

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of build a foundation to roll into next year. Uh,

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.239
<v Speaker 1>but you know in December, you gotta you gotta find

0:02:57.320 --> 0:03:00.639
<v Speaker 1>ways to win when you're tired, you're banked up, short week,

0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:02.799
<v Speaker 1>you know. So these are these are lessons that we're

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:06.079
<v Speaker 1>learning now and that hopefully we'll carry into, uh to

0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:08.679
<v Speaker 1>another season. We just talked about how he wants to

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.840
<v Speaker 1>be aggressive as a play caller defensive. You've been in

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:13.720
<v Speaker 1>the league obviously a number of years. This one of

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:16.440
<v Speaker 1>the more aggressive defenses you've been in in terms of

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 1>his play call. Um, No, not really, I've been in

0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:24.400
<v Speaker 1>more aggressive. I was with Greg Williams, so we blitz

0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot. Uh. You know, I think he wants to

0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:32.080
<v Speaker 1>get He's actually probably more conservative than than most coordinators

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.239
<v Speaker 1>I've been with. He wants to play, he wants support

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.560
<v Speaker 1>man rush. He's not gonna blitz much. We'll play man

0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 1>a man, but he'll give help, you know, with a

0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:42.320
<v Speaker 1>whole player or high whole player. Um. And if if

0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 1>he sees, you know, a quarterback or offense has struggles

0:03:45.080 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 1>with blitzeres, then will blitz. But most part we're rushing

0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.680
<v Speaker 1>for so it's it's not h it's not as aggressive

0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>as it's some other defensive I've been in. Didn't even

0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 1>know as much as last year. And how do you people?

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>You are I lt Uh, it's a little different. Every

0:04:07.960 --> 0:04:13.760
<v Speaker 1>year is different. Um. Probably Um, not as productive as

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:17.080
<v Speaker 1>last year, but still still having a good season. Uh.

0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:20.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean I'll watch it and obviously pay attention to it.

0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 1>But you know, that's an honor to be voted on

0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:27.520
<v Speaker 1>by your peers, by the fans, coaches, people or people

0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:29.560
<v Speaker 1>around the league who who watch you, who play against you.

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:32.680
<v Speaker 1>So it's always you know, a fun time a year

0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:35.760
<v Speaker 1>to see you know where you fall, and it's really

0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:37.840
<v Speaker 1>all about respect and uh, you know that's kind of

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:39.320
<v Speaker 1>what a lot of guys played for. It's what I

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 1>played for. Um, But there's a lot of guys playing

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.640
<v Speaker 1>some good ball. So UM, you know, we'll see what

0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 1>happens done. You wish has more players who push you

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.479
<v Speaker 1>back against the NFL And Richard Sherman, does you curious

0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:56.200
<v Speaker 1>what your take is on that and how you kind

0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 1>of balance you know, when you decide to come out

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 1>of UM. I mean, well, there's always ways to do it,

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:07.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, you you know you you have to you

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:10.960
<v Speaker 1>can't just you know, you don't want to troll an issue.

0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:13.040
<v Speaker 1>You don't want to just you know, tweet or post

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:16.400
<v Speaker 1>something or talk about something when you know it's advantageous

0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and it makes a lot of noise. But you know,

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:20.360
<v Speaker 1>you as a player, don't do anything. If you're not

0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 1>a player rep or you're not involved with you know,

0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 1>the actual decision making on what happens, then it's hard

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 1>to criticize. But I think there are times where you know,

0:05:32.800 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 1>we need to be able to speak out on things

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>that you know, we don't umsaid, like like player safety

0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.240
<v Speaker 1>or you know, when some of the find systems were

0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:44.080
<v Speaker 1>coming out, or disciplinary stuff where guys are getting punished

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:48.360
<v Speaker 1>outside of UM the rules that we already have in place.

0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:50.480
<v Speaker 1>That's when you know players need to speak up. But

0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, some of the things unfortunately we're we're bargained

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 1>for and as players we collectively agree to that deal.

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.400
<v Speaker 1>So we have problems with some of the things that

0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:07.640
<v Speaker 1>are in place. Then you know, instead of kind of barking,

0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 1>you know on social media, some of those things need

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:12.000
<v Speaker 1>to be or you need to become more active as

0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:15.120
<v Speaker 1>a player. Uh, what's going on as we get closer

0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:18.320
<v Speaker 1>and closer to this next collective bargaining agreement to make

0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:21.720
<v Speaker 1>sure that whatever your feelings are, whatever your thoughts are,

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.920
<v Speaker 1>are reflected in what we do moving forward. So, I mean,

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:27.920
<v Speaker 1>there's two sides of it. I think I think both

0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 1>are important. But you know, obviously a little bit of

0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:34.000
<v Speaker 1>action needs to come with with those who who voice

0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:36.960
<v Speaker 1>their opinions. And in Richard Sherman's defense, he's a very

0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:40.400
<v Speaker 1>active rep for the Seahawks and he's very involved in

0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:43.480
<v Speaker 1>what we do as a player's union. So I think

0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:47.560
<v Speaker 1>him speaking on things is uh, you know, everybody respects it.

0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Thanks good, No problem,
