1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, welcome to New England. Justin. How are you? I'm

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: doing great? How are you good? Um? I think a

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: lot of fans up here in New England, fellow Boston College,

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 1: are familiar with your play with of course, what are

5
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: the characteristics of your game at left tackle that you

6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: think stood out and made an impression on the Patriots. Um.

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: I would love to think my atholyticism, my full quickness

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: stood out stood out among the many of the other things.

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 1: And I would like to think how physical I play

10
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: as well also stands out. So those those three things

11
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: for sure. And what are the areas that you think

12
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: could could show some improvement and the Patriots might be

13
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:51,639
Speaker 1: able to work with you on. Uh, definitely my position, UM,

14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: my box position in the run game for sure, and

15
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: being able to have hurt a good base and not

16
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: getting narrow times. Thank you very much. The problem next

17
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 1: question Ian Seal, and I'll ask anyone else once you

18
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: ask some question. Hits five start now. Thank you, justin.

19
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 1: Welcome to New England. Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

20
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 1: You're welcome. Um. You played tackle like we just talked

21
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 1: about at Wake Forest. The Patriots announced you as a guard,

22
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 1: did they discuss with you that they prefer you to

23
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: play inside at least to start, and what were those

24
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: conversations like with them? Honestly that you know, the conversations

25
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: were just honestly, just be ready for any position that

26
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: we throw you in. They told me that they shouldn't

27
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: play tackle, but they're also interested to see if I

28
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: can put any other position. So um, you know, that's

29
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: that's kind of what that's kind of what we've been

30
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: talked about. So you know, I'm happy with any position

31
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: in your position. Thank thank you very much. The next question,

32
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: Next question, Ryan Hannibal, what was your free draft contact

33
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: with the Patriots and are you surprised at all when

Speaker 1: interviews after the Combine as well, And honestly, uh, it

39
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: was you know, it was hard to get a gauge,

40
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: but I had the conference recording started, so um, so yeah,

41
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: so that's that's what it was like. So it was

42
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,200

64
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: uh Justin, will you a team captain that waiting for us?

65
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: Is that? What is that? What I saw? Yes? I

66
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: was the team captain. I this past year got you.

67
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: The Patriots have picked a lot of team captains over

68
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: the past couple of years in their draft process and

69
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: in their signing process in terms of you know, captain's

70
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: from college. What's your leadership style? Like, what does it

71
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: mean to you to be a captain? Uh, you know

72
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: in college? And how will you bring that leadership style

73
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 1: to the pros And will you have to adjust it

74
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: at all because you're a rookie coming in now? Yeah? Um,

75
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: So for me, my leadership style is more of a

76
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: type of leader that likes to hold other people accountable.

77
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 1: I don't uh don't really yell on screen because I

78
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: feel like it doesn't I don't. I feel like I

79
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: can't get through it anybody that way. So I'm the

80
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: guy who likes to talk and just hold my team's accountable. Um.

81
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: You know, being a captain in the fast season with

82
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: a huge honor and it definitely taught me a lot

83
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: about myself and it taught me more about how how

84
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: can I communicate with players? Um, and how and what

85
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: it means to be a leader. Um. And for me, honestly,

86
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: I think the one thing about my leadership style that

87
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: I like it is like I always you know, I'm

88
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: always respectful to no matter who who, no matter who

89
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: I'm talking to, and you know, coming in, um, you

90
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: know I'm rookie, and you know I don't. I'm just

91
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 1: playing on just you know, doing the best that I

92
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: can and just being bad, getting better every day and

93
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 1: just learning from all the best that are up there

94
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 1: and just being respectful. So that's that's that's where I've

95
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: seen myself at the moment, and that's less like where

96
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: my role will be. Thankfully, no problem, all right, I'm

97
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: black
