1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 1: Jaguars linebacker Devin Lloyd is with us actual training camp practice.

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 2: For you, that's the step of the right direction, right.

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 2: How does it feel to be out here? Just a blessing.

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 2: Not having this opportunity last year. It definitely makes me

5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 2: even that much more grateful. I just remember after the

6
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,080
Speaker 2: conditioning tests I crossed the line on the last one.

7
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: I was like, hallelujah, let's go.

8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,159
Speaker 2: But really just grateful to be out here and to

9
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 2: get better and have my health and strength.

10
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: So we all know your rookie season from training camp

11
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: through the regular season, the way things went. How did

12
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: you grow from last year? Maybe physically, certainly mentally.

13
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: As well, yes, yes, really just understanding what it takes

14
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 2: to play at the NFL level. I think the college

15
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 2: level and the NFL level are obviously too completely different, beast,

16
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 2: So you have to learn the NFL game because the

17
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 2: NFL game is different than the college game, I mean

18
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 2: just the timing of things this game. And you have

19
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: to learn a lot you know on your own too

20
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 2: as well. You know, I mean not say that isn't

21
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 2: my fair share of you know, research on you know,

22
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 2: how to how to be where I want to be,

23
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: But you know, there's a lot coming at you from

24
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 2: all different angles rookie year, and there's so much you

25
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 2: got to take in. I think now the biggest thing

26
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 2: was not having to worry about so much coming at

27
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: me and just really getting the most at every day.

28
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: Like I read somewhere that you listening to a lot

29
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: of the noise outside too last year. What did you

30
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: take from that? Maybe not to listen to it anymore.

31
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I mean you always see it, you know,

32
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 2: But the thing is you have to be mature enough

33
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: to handle it. And that's the thing, and I think

34
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: that's also a huge area of growth for me, is

35
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: you know, just being mature and understanding that, you know,

36
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 2: everybody is going to have their own opinion, and you know,

37
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: you got to listen to the ones that have your

38
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: best interests and the ones that are saying, you know,

39
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: stuff out of out of love. Really, there's a lot

40
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 2: of people who say stuff out of you know, motion,

41
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: and you know they might not know what they're talking about,

42
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 2: but you really have to listen to the people who

43
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: have your your best interests, and even then you can

44
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 2: sometimes still not listen to it. So it really just depends.

45
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 2: But main thing is just you know, being mature enough

46
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: to handle whatever you see.

47
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 1: How are you different physically now after an NFL season

48
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 1: under your belt, Where did you feel like you needed

49
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: to grow the most?

50
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 2: Yes, I would say last year particularly really my whole body.

51
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: You know, I went through a lot of just injuries,

52
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 2: you know, stingers, stuff on my knees. I mean, like

53
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 2: I couldn't even bend my knees without pain. There was

54
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: just a lot that I was going through physically and

55
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 2: it hindered my performance. And I think now it's being proactive,

56
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: being on top of that before it happens, you know,

57
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: being precautionary, like just all the precautionary measures you have

58
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: to take. And I think it really you know, it

59
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: gave me a little PTSD and I'm really on top

60
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 2: of it, like I'm going to make sure that, you know,

61
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: and some things are inevitable, you know, like I've had

62
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: stingers every year in my career, but I'm gonna do

63
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: everything in my power to make sure that that doesn't

64
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: happen this year. And you know, with the knees just

65
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 2: being more flexible, I think Pilate's was a huge step

66
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 2: forward for me.

67
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: Devin, how different will this defense feel overall this year.

68
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: We all know the rankings, overall stats and all that stuff.

69
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: There were a lot of takeaways. That's what this defense

70
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: did well last year. Where can this defense take steps

71
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: in the right direction?

72
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: I think you year two in this system, everyone's gonna

73
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 2: be flying around. Everybody's gonna know what they're doing. You're

74
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: not gonna see anywhere near as much and of errors

75
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: from all across the board. And Jake said it top

76
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: five defense. You know, that's what we're gonna be this year,

77
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 2: and that's where we're all working to be this year.

78
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: And it's never given, it's always earned. And every day

79
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 2: we come out here, we come out here with the

80
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: mindset that we want to be the best from top

81
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 2: to bottom. You know, our coaches have that mindset defensive line, linebacker, safeties, deep,

82
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: every dB. So we are all working together to be

83
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 2: the best we can be. And I think we have

84
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 2: come together so much as a unit off the field

85
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: where we're really because that's so important, and I think

86
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 2: everyone from all levels really enjoys being around each other

87
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 2: and loves each other.

88
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: You ready to get these pads on tomorrow? Of course?

89
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: Of course, you know, I think as linebackers obviously, you know,

90
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: we got to sit to the tempo, you know, especially defensively,

91
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 2: and you know, I mean that's what we do. We run,

92
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 2: we hit,
