But yeah, man, it's beautifully here. It's Gorton. Yeah, 52 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: that doesn't change right anything like ever like eve when 53 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: the range is still pretty, like it's crazy. So it's 54 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: been in awesome all season for you graduated last month, 55 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: Hileyowood Churches dot com. If you ever read the Peace, 56 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: you fulfilled a promise. It's your mom right to walk. 57 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. So you graduated last month, What was 58 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: that moment like and explain what that promise was your mom? 59 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: So my mom told my MoMA that you know. So 60 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 1: at the time I knew it, I was going to something. 61 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: I knew I was going somewhere. And her biggest thing was, 62 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: you know, you didn't waste three and a half years, 63 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 1: four years for nothing. So for you to go through 64 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: college and just to leave an offense when you started, 65 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,399 Speaker 1: it's kind of like it's almost like doing yourself an injustice. 66 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: So you know, she told me to promise that I 67 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: would go back and get it done. Me. I don't 68 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: want to wait till I was in a year, five years, six, 69 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: year seven and try to go back and forget everything 70 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: I learned. So I went ahead and just got it done. 71 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: Doctor out so I can be done with it. And uh, 72 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: it was a good experience. No, don't get me wrong. 73 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: I didn't want to walk in the first place, as 74 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: I didn't want to walk because now I was I 75 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: wasn't walking with any of my friends. All my friends 76 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: didn't either in the league. They already graduated. Already they graduate. 77 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: So I was like, I'm going here with a bunch 78 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: of guys that I didn't even know.

That meant the world to me, like 103 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: more than they probably ever know, because it's just like, dang, 104 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: like I ain't my boys ain't here, Like I can't, 105 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: I can't really have fun for real, Like I'm basically 106 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: just here from my mom, you know what I'm saying. 107 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: So I just had to keep saying that to myself. 108 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: I'm here for her, so this I'm gonna do this 109 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: for her. But it really turned into the thing for 110 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: me because I was just like, man, I really appreciate them. 111 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: The boys been coming out, you know what I'm saying, 112 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 1: my whole family for real, because I was deep out there. 113 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: I might think I'm deep, but proud of you. Yeah, man, 114 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I was the first one 115 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: to really go to college and finish up. You know 116 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: what I'm saying to spot management degree, right, Yeah, that 117 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: sport management degree, and yeah, man, I'm glad I gotta done. 118 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: It's a big deal and it's it's a nice start 119 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: to the off season. One of the things that you 120 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: said that kind of resonated with me at the beginning 121 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: of OTA's is I think I've reporter asked you about, 122 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: you know, how much have you improved and has the 123 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: game gotten faster or you know, or has the game 124 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: slowed down rather for you? And you said that first, 125 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: before you even talk about the field, you talk about 126 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: the guy next to you, right, you talked about Brandon 127 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: Mebaine and his family, and Denzel Perryman and his family. 128 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: And once you realize who you're fighting for, it makes 129 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: it that much more important. Explain what you meant by that. 130 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: So my thing is like, as a rookie, the only 131 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: thing you want to do is make the team, Like 132 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 1: no matter where you get drafted, no matter how that works, 133 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: Like you can get drafted high and still not make 134 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: the team. Like it can happen. And so that's you're 135 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 1: basically in it for yourself, you know what I'm saying, 136 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: Like everything can do, it's for you. Everything you do, 137 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: it's for you. You know, you're going hard and practice, 138 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: you trying to make these players, but they all for you. 139 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like this off season when 140 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: you really study film and you really watch and see 141 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: where everything's happening, and you know what I'm saying, Like, yeah, 142 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: you get a double team, but you're holding that A 143 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: double team means then they'll get they're runing free and 144 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: make a play and a big hit on somebody, you 145 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Or you get a pass rush, 146 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: you you're in a pass rusher, you get double team 147 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: in the pass rush, that means Joey're gonna get a 148 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: one on one outside. And I don't know about y'all, 149 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: but I'll take Joey one to want anybody, you know 150 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So that's a mismatch. It's a mismatch, 151 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So for me, like the 152 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 1: sacrifices you make, yeah, it's a sacrifice, but at the 153 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: end of the day, it's helping somebody else out and 154 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: knowing the guys that knowing the guys that is helping 155 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: helping out and knowing who that what they're about, and 156 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: stuff like that, Like it means a little more, you 157 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You take more pride in that, 158 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: ye know what I'm saying. Like, so when you're going 159 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: through these OTA's practices and the little details about you know, 160 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: expanding for width and clean cleaning up your hips and 161 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: getting the hand all your stuff like that to come 162 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: a little more important, because it's like dannin, I ain't 163 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: trying to leave you know, Joy and Bain and you 164 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: know Chenna and Isaac and and uh just I ain't 165 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: trying to lead them boys out there without you know, 166 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: without without me. You know what I'm saying exactly, I 167 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: just I just make it a point to make sure 168 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: my job gets done and my job gets done well 169 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, I know that 170 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: they're making sure that they're handling the visions the same. 171 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: So Brandon was on a couple of weeks ago and 172 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: he said the same exact thing. He said, You may 173 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: not see it. Fans may not see a commentators may 174 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: not see what I have to do on the field 175 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: to set up my teammates. It may not show up 176 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: in the stat sheet. But you may have done something 177 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: on the field that helps Joey get a sack or 178 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: Denzil get a tackle for loss. Explain how that goes 179 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: hand in hand with just everything you do in the 180 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: film room, and how you guys or are so unified 181 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: in saying, like, listen, it's not about me making the play. 182 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: I'm setting somebody else up to make play. He made 183 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: the play. We made the play, you know what I'm saying. 184 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: That's at the end of the day. It's not gonna say, 185 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, Brandon me Bain wins over the Kansas City Chiefs, 186 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: see what I'm saying. Or or Philip Rivers you know 187 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, wins over Baltimore. Now I was gonna say, 188 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: you know, the Los Angeles Chargers. You know, we all 189 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: wear the boat, you know what I'm saying. So when 190 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: you make a sack, we're make a sack. You know 191 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. When you make an interception, we all 192 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: met in a section at the end of the day, 193 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: if he got time throw the ball, it's not gonna 194 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: be an interception, or if you're not playing good coverage, 195 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: it won't be a sack. So it all go hand 196 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: to hand. But just because the name one name was publicized, 197 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: don't mean that it didn't take the other ten to help. 198 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Something that that's the most important, 199 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: most the poor thing about this game, Like it's it's 200 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: not all about you know, the stats and the number 201 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: that you put up. The numbers are nice, you know 202 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It's all it's good to get the 203 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: recognition by the end of the day, the best recognition 204 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: you want is from your teammates. That's right, to know 205 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: that you you know what I'm saying. You really I 206 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 1: hear grinding and you really I here trying to trying 207 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: to get trying to get it for the guys. That's 208 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,439 Speaker 1: that's the biggest thing. So, and your teammates on the 209 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: defensive line have already noticed a big difference in you. 210 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: Damien Squares said you look more explosive than last year. 211 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: Brandon me being complimented you, And I was just talking 212 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: to you about the first four picks of the twenty 213 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: eighteen draft, Orwin, James, You, Channa new Woe, Sue, Justin Jones, 214 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 1: and Kaiser White. All four of you guys have the 215 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: potential to be starters this year in twenty nineteen. So 216 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 1: when you think about that, that's one third of the 217 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,719 Speaker 1: defense from the same draft to consecutive picks. And you 218 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: said the biggest jump from year one is from year 219 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: one to year two. Just imagine Durwin in year two. 220 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: You even talked about, like, I wonder what third one's 221 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: gonna look like because your one's pretty good, right exactly, 222 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: But because I think it's more so a comfort level, 223 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because I know and all 224 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: these guys on the team are good. Everybody's like from 225 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: the top of the rods allway down to the bottom, 226 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: like everybody's good and everybody was good. They're respected to college. 227 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: But I don't think anybody was really good for their 228 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: first year, you know what I'm saying. And that's that's 229 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: the adjustment phase. And the big I said the biggest 230 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: jump in the NFL is the first and second year. 231 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: I think the biggest jump between the second and third 232 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: year in your college career too. You feel me and 233 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: ask when the guys start getting come to with that team, 234 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: they start making these players, they start having all these 235 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: having fun on the field. Like you you see more, 236 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: you see more of the second year players and on. 237 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: It's more about what I do rather than what they're doing. 238 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, where's your rookie year. You're 239 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: thinking more about what they're doing, what I gotta do 240 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: for where it's no they gotta ract what we're doing. 241 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. At the end of the day, 242 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: it's about us. It's about to charge. It's not about 243 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: who we play is not about where we play, It's 244 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: about how we play, you know what I'm saying, how 245 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: we do against them? You know what I'm saying. I 246 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: hear I hear a lot about having fun, right right, 247 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: And I would imagine as a rookie, you want to 248 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: have fun, but you want to make sure your assignments 249 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: for sound, you want to make sure you make the team, 250 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: and that can get stressful. That can't be fun sometimes. 251 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: When did it slow down for you to where you 252 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: were genuinely going out there making plays, having fun, not 253 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: thinking as much as you probably did during mini camp, 254 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: training camp and at the beginning of the season. Honestly, 255 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 1: I knew what had to be done the Broncos game 256 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: that we played the towards end of the season, I 257 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 1: knew what we seen. Yeah we seventeen. I knew it 258 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: had to be done because I had fun that game. Like, 259 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: not only am I playing, you know what I'm saying 260 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: with my guys, Like also I'm playing, I'm playing against 261 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: one of them, one of my brothers. You know what 262 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, so yeah, right, and that that's funny, 263 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: Like that's one of you. When we played this game. 264 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, we to have fun with 265 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:10,839 Speaker 1: what we're doing, Like you get to do this for 266 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: a living, Like nobody got it better than us, you 267 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, so espec, you take it. 268 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: You take a step back where you're at. You're about 269 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 1: to go to the playoffs. You're playing one of your buddies, Yeah, 270 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 1: in a in a rivalry game in week seventeen. You're 271 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: about about to go to Baltimore for a chance to 272 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: go to a super Bowl. I mean you take all 273 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: that in as a rookie, that's a big deal, right right, 274 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: So just like as at that point, like I feel 275 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: like if you have you feel like you haven't made 276 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: an impact. You probably made it more of an impact 277 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: and you think you did. But at the same time, 278 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: you just want to keep your head down and keep working, 279 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: Like keep learning, don't never stop learning. That's the biggest thing. 280 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: That's that's what Brandon meban intelligence with Square telling me 281 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: that's what you know, Melvin and Joey and everybody just 282 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: never stopped learning. Like it's as many as many accolades 283 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: as Brandon meband should get or I already had, you 284 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like the man comes to work 285 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: every day, Like you know what I'm saying, it's an 286 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: example for everybody, an example for everybody. T D. Philip, 287 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: Like guys in this and they're they're they're up there, 288 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like, so just seeing those 289 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: guys go about that their daily you know what I'm saying, 290 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: that their daily things that they're doing, practice and everything. 291 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,599 Speaker 1: Just see how they talk to the guys and just 292 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: you know, coach the guys and tell them to keep 293 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: going and keep learning and stuff like that. That sets 294 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: stuff's valuable. It's valuable. But even if he's not talking 295 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: directly to you, like the stuff that he says, like 296 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: when they when they speak, everybody listens. That's that's type 297 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: of respect that they have. But well, the thing is 298 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: you're becoming one of those guys too, now, oh for sure. 299 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: But the thing is like it ron One built them. 300 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. The one day, you know 301 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So at the same time, like yeah, 302 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: like I want to be a leader, but at the 303 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 1: same time, like I still I still listen, yes, and 304 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: I have to listen, like that's that's that's still somebody 305 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: Like if I got a question, I don't understand something. 306 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm still like, hey, bro, like what you think about Well, 307 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: you have to. And then Brandon even said he because 308 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: I'm still learning now to this day, I'm still learning 309 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: new things. But to counter that, I give if Jerry 310 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,679 Speaker 1: Tillery is an example, he could learn a lot of 311 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 1: things from Brand and Me being he could learn a 312 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: lot of things from Damian Square, but there's certain things 313 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: that he could probably only learn from you, right because 314 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: you're you're two in the league, you were in his 315 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 1: shoes last year. You could probably give him tips on 316 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: how to prepare for many camp, how to get your 317 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: body ready for training camp, what it was like for you, 318 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: things that work, things that didn't work, and pass along 319 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: to a guy because it's so fresh in your mind 320 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: and you just lived it, right. So I mean, like 321 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: I said, like I told me, and Jerry talks every 322 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: day just you know what I'm saying. On the field, 323 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 1: he asked me some questions, I'll let him know, you know, 324 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: I give him my answer, and if I ain't got 325 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: the answer to I obviously that point in the Brand 326 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 1: and Me band like, look, this is what's going on 327 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But for the biggest thing, what 328 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: I told him was. I was just like, you know 329 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: you you know the situation, you a or you really 330 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: just have to learn as much as you can, Like, 331 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: just learn as much as you can. That's the biggest thing, 332 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, when you get 333 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: into the field, the more you know, the better you'll be. Yes, right, 334 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: you feel me the morning to know about yourself, the 335 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: more you know about people that's next to you, and 336 00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: the more you know about what they're doing, you'll be great. 337 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: You'll be great. That's been a theme of coach Coach 338 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: Len's message, I feel like to the rookies since they 339 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: got here, was just stay in your playbook, right, stay 340 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: in your playbook because you're behind. And he brings up 341 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: a good point because when rookie Minicamp started, the vets 342 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: are already in the building twenty five days. Right, they're 343 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: working out, they're getting everybody right. They know the system 344 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: for the most part, they know what to expect, they 345 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: know the culture. Rookies come in as you know you 346 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: You just you get flown out to LA. You don't 347 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: know anybody. Maybe you know a couple of coaches. You 348 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: get thrown with the playbook. Yeah, not only are you 349 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: trying to adjust from a football standpoint, We're trying adjust 350 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: as a man in a new profession, and there's a 351 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: lot being thrown at you in a short period of time, 352 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: and you probably are at a point where you want 353 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: to make a big impression, especially like get the you know, 354 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: last couple of days of mini camp before training camp starts. 355 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 1: So it's a it's a big deal and where we 356 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: far sort of like I said, well, I felt short 357 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: of as well. It is that whole time that you're 358 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: going to everything you just name you forgetting one main point. 359 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: It's not about you, you know saying, it's about us. 360 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, like a collective group. You 361 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You were you were brought here 362 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: to help us, help the team. You know what I'm saying, Like, 363 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 1: it's not about what you do and how you do. 364 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously everybody wants to do the best you can. 365 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. By the end of the day, 366 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: you're here to help us win. Yeah, it's it's it's 367 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: what can I do to help the team. What can 368 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: I do to help the team? That could be anything, 369 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like anything, everybody's important everybody 370 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: plays a role, and everybody's job is meaningful and valuable. Yea, 371 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So that's that's just like 372 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: I said, as a rookie, you don't really know that. 373 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: You just want to make the team. You want everything 374 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: for you. You want your accolades, you want everything, you 375 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: want to get your you want to make your money, 376 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: you want to do everything you could do to make 377 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: yourself better. But at the end of the day, like 378 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: I said, it's not about you. You'll get better on 379 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: the way, but it's about us because when you get better, 380 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: we'll all get better. Exactly Courts has brought. I talked 381 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: to him last month. He mentioned you. He I guess 382 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: he got hooked up with Brandon before he even got 383 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: here through through a mutual friend of Brandon, and I 384 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: think he was a coach from Cincinnati, And he said 385 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: first day brand to help me reorganize my notes. You know, 386 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: I've talked to I've talked to Justin, I've talked to Square, 387 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: and you know he's he's approaching in a way like, hey, 388 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, I need to learn from the guys 389 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: that are already in the defensive line room, right, you know, 390 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: it's It's funny though, because when I when I came in, 391 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: like I was twenty one, you know what I'm saying. 392 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: So I'm the youngest guy in the room, you know 393 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like you got me legit right, you know, 394 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: everybody's just so much older. I'm just like, dang, like 395 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm young. I'm really the young guy in the room. 396 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: Like even the guy's the second third year in, they're 397 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: two three years older than me anyway. Still, so having 398 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: guys like that, who who just came in and I'm 399 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: just like, damn, you older than me. Like, but it's like, 400 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: like I said, we're such a close team where it's 401 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: like we can joke about certain things. But it's funny. 402 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 1: But in that regard, age is just a number though, 403 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: because number, because you're you're in the league already play 404 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: you can play, yeah, is what it is. Like. If 405 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: you could play, you can play. I don't care how 406 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: old you are, you can play. You can play. But 407 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: it's just we I feel like I feel like their 408 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: their adjustments a little more easier than my adjustment when 409 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: I first came in, just for the simple fact that 410 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: everybody was so much older than me, you know, what 411 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm saying, so somebody could really like they was telling 412 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: about their rookie year. But times change, like a lot 413 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: of times change, you felt me and things. You don't 414 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 1: really know how how close up a team you have 415 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 1: until you've actually been on a team. That's right. And 416 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: that goes back to my point with Tillery and you know, 417 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,679 Speaker 1: young guys like yourself because you you were brought up 418 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,440 Speaker 1: in to this culture, this culture with Anthony Land and 419 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: Gous Bradley, so um, you know everything. It changes from 420 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,360 Speaker 1: different eras when Brandon was drafted in two thousand and seven, 421 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: when you were drafted in twenty eighteen. It's a different 422 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 1: league right now. It's a long time, all right, Bolts fans. 423 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: Before we get to part two of my conversation with 424 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: Justin Jones, I want to remind you to enter the 425 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 1: jack Boys Jersey giveaway sweepstakes for a chance to win 426 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 1: an autograph jersey signed by all the defensive backs.

I 433 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 1: want to go back to Baltimore for a second, because 434 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: before we started taping, we talked about how, you know, 435 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: Durwin made an impact in that game. You Chenna had 436 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: that that strip sack that kind of sealed it. You 437 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: made your first career start in that game. You started 438 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: that Baltimore game, you got your first full sack, and 439 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: then you went on to start the game in New England. 440 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: To have that valuable playoff experience is very rare for 441 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: a rookie yet alone three rookies, um, you know, and 442 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: we talked about Kaisier coming back as well. How much 443 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: do you think that will help knowing that you played 444 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 1: football in January at its highest level in a place 445 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: like Foxborough, in a place like Baltimore against two very 446 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: talented teams. I mean, to be honest, it's never really 447 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: it's never really dawned on me like, oh, this is 448 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: the playoff game. This this is such, you know, such 449 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: a really big game. I mean, everybody knows the gravity 450 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: of the game. Did it feel different at all? To 451 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: be honest, that it really didn't. You know what I'm saying, 452 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: like it really felt like another game that I had. 453 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: I had to make sure I went out here it 454 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: did my job and made sure I made sure this 455 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 1: time that I had fun. That was the biggest thing. 456 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: I made sure I have fun. I showed I didn't 457 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: know to the Broncos game that you know, like you 458 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: can really you can still do your job and still 459 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 1: have a great time doing it, you know what I'm saying. 460 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: Like I was uptight, you know what I'm saying. I 461 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: was playing slow and stuff like that, But then things 462 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: started clicking. Then it's okay, well maybe I can do this, 463 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: maybe I can do that. Then used to really start 464 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: having fun. Then okay, that thing is coming together, which 465 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: is I think is the biggest different between this OTAs 466 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: and lazot This otis I'm having so much fun because 467 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: it's just like the switch fun on right switch went on. 468 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 1: I know these guys and you know they know me, 469 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: and everybody knows. Like I'm just I'm positive, man, I'm 470 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 1: positive about everything. I try to be positive about everything. 471 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: I try to have a lot of energy, you know 472 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Even though something I walk in the building, 473 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 1: I'm a little tired. You know what I'm saying, but 474 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: compact this time ready to go. But it's the grind. 475 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: And you said, you know, even after many camp you're 476 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: dedicated to just getting better. It's not about taking vacation. 477 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: It's about getting better. One of the things you did 478 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: this offseason was box.

Max? One and 484 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: three quarters? And I was like, you just guessed. I 485 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: was gassed, Like my defense went down. I was trying 486 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: to keep my right hand next to my faces in 487 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: case you trying to throw when I could dodge it. 488 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: But still still a good experience. But man, you don't 489 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: want to do that again? No, I mean, I'll definitely 490 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: do it again because I guy said I had fun 491 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: for the first round. Does it help at all as 492 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,719 Speaker 1: a football player? Does it help? Yeah? For sure as 493 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: delon just active hands, keep your hands moving and stuff 494 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: like that, keep your hands up that that helps a lot, 495 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: you know, what I'm saying, handout coordination. You've seen what 496 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: you're hitting. You know what I'm saying, So that's it 497 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: helps a lot. And but um thinking when you're tired 498 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: also you also helps a lot. That's why I noticed 499 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: with boxing, like you have to know you know what 500 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: I'm saying, you're still trying to think of hell, you're 501 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: still trying to you know, raping certain things, but you're 502 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: still thinking. You're always thinking when you're bossing the mental man, 503 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: you can't be mentally weak, right, You're all thinking. But 504 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: when you get tired, you know that they can go 505 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: out the window a little bit. So it's kind of 506 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,479 Speaker 1: like you try to refocus in and try to get 507 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 1: your mind right so while you're tired, so you can 508 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: still do things you want to do on your boxing, 509 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: which is the same thing you play in the line. 510 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 1: You get tired, you still want to know what you 511 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: gotta do, and you still want to be able to 512 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: make the same place as you were when you were fresh. 513 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:16,719 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. At the end of the day, 514 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: it's not for you, it's for everybody else. Yeah, So 515 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: are you a boxing fan a little bit? But not 516 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: as much as you would think not as much as 517 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 1: you would think. If I can get the fight, I 518 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: would definitely watch the fight. You saw the Joshua Ruis fight, right. 519 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: I saw the Joshua fight and it was supposed to 520 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: be Joshua's fight. But listen, I saw that it was 521 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: on like five minutes before on this zone, and I 522 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I'm not gonna subscribe because 523 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: I think josh was gonna win. This was a guy 524 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: that like it was a last minute right, just placement, right, 525 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: So I'm like, I don't think it's worth the money, 526 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 1: right right. Twenty minutes later, I get the breaking news 527 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: sound on my phone that he loses, and then I 528 00:21:54,320 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: watched the clip right right, This guy was a huge underdog. 529 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,919 Speaker 1: Lady Ruise, first of all, shout out to Danny Ruise, 530 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: but you know, it just goes to show you that 531 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: anybody could get knocked out. Anybody can anybody's listen, it's 532 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: a man's game. Everybody trained the same way you train, 533 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: everybody that has some of the same basic knowledge you have, 534 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: and it's really just the want to and it is 535 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: really any given day you feel me same thing as 536 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: in football, as any given sunday you feel me like, 537 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: so you gotta come with you that come with all 538 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: the time. That's the only lesson you could really take 539 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: out of that. I really want to see how he 540 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: bounces back, because you know, true champions or you know 541 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I may when adversity hits, I was shocked, 542 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 1: But I think there's like a rematch claus. So I 543 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: think like November, October, November December, something sometime around that 544 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: that time frame, he'll get the rematch. But just boxing 545 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: in general, Coach Lynn yesterday Monday said that he's shown 546 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: you guys like Mike Tyson, Vander Holyfield, clips and stuff, 547 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,479 Speaker 1: and you know, those are things that I think there 548 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: are some parallels between boxing and football, I think especially 549 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: form like a mental perspective. Don't overlook components, Uh, stay 550 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 1: in there now, you know, just move on to the 551 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: next play and don't think about if something good or 552 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: bad happened before for the round. You don't know, I 553 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: don't know how many boss matches you're saying, when when 554 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: somebody gets knocked out early, like gets knocked down early 555 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: but still comes back later on wins the fight, you 556 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, so it's all about your 557 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: your your next player. You don't as good as your 558 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: next play. You feel mean, you don't as good as 559 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: your your next round. You know what I'm saying stuff 560 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 1: like that, So I mean, I don't know, man, You 561 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: just you got you gotta keep you, You gotta keep 562 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: your mind right, You gotta keep stay focusing with what 563 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: the what you got, what you have going on, and 564 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Just know that you're your 565 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: training won't fail you. That's that's the biggest thing. So 566 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: last football question, and then I want to talk to 567 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: you about this Fortnite tournament. You your participating in video game. 568 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: Deal this defense when it is full strength, right, we 569 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: talked about Joey Boson. I come back to Week eleven 570 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: last year, Um, guys like Denzel weren't available, Tavish, Trevor Williams, 571 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: another big piece to the secondary. When this defense is 572 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: full strength, man, it is a problem. You have a 573 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: perfect blend of youth, of experience, of all pros, of 574 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 1: pro bowlers, guys on the complic yourself, what are your 575 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: expectations for this defense? Thing that everybody has been together 576 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: for the last several years, even dating back to when 577 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: you weren't even here. There's there's two a lot of 578 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: guys here, right, I mean, so for us, like I said, 579 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: the whole the whole roster from top to bottom is 580 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: pretty it's pretty good. So when we lose players to injuries, 581 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, that we lose players to 582 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: different different reasons, I feel like we're not really losing anything, 583 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like we're just reloading. And 584 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: that's that's just kind of how I see it, because 585 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: everybody brings something difference to the table, and every everything 586 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: they bring to the table is we can utilize that 587 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: like to the fullest and we can still win games, 588 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: we can still do things. Obviously, it'd be great to 589 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: have everybody, you know what I'm saying. But you know, 590 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: like I said, we reload. Well, it goes back to 591 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: how can I help the team? How can I help? Right? 592 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: If you're a backup, Hey, I'm here to support the 593 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: guy in front of me, right, I'm here to play 594 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: special teams and when my numbers called, it's time to go, 595 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 1: it's time to go. And they can't be a drop off, 596 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 1: right right Right, That's why that's what I mean by reloading. 597 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: But the guys were the thing, the thing that I've 598 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: seen with this team that that really that really speaks 599 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 1: to the character of the team. Like so I remember, 600 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: I remember what was it. It was during the season. 601 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: It was during the season, and I think I was talking. 602 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 1: I think I was I was on the field, I 603 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: was on special team. I was looking at special teams. 604 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 1: They were going on in the field whatever, and then 605 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: I see Casey and I see one of the one 606 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: of the undraped the free agent safety's there too, and 607 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,199 Speaker 1: they were just talking and the safety was telling, uh, 608 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: Casey that you know that, I guess one of hit 609 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: steps like he didn't open up his hip the right 610 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: way or something like that. But to a guy like 611 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: that who's been in the league for for a few 612 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 1: years now, you know what I'm saying, To underrated the 613 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: free agent who just coming and you could have easily 614 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: just brushed them off, like hey, I'm back back pro bowling, right, 615 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,479 Speaker 1: you don't know what you're talking about. But Casey kind 616 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: of just you just took it on the channel and 617 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: it was like, we show me what I did wrong, 618 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 1: and then let's let's go ahead and get this fixed. 619 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. And that that right there 620 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 1: alone to speaks to the character the guys and his 621 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: team up.

Everybody's want to be that want to 629 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: be the best they can. Yeah, And so like I 630 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: said that, that speaks to the character the team because 631 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: it's not just cases like it's a few guys I've 632 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: seen like that, and it's just like dang, Like I said, 633 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: I know, in college, even myself, like I'm I'm like 634 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: a freshman to come in and say, I'm just like, uh, 635 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 1: you just come out of high school?

I mean, 643 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 1: those are how championship teams are developed, right, when when 644 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: everybody's selfless, when everybody has a voice. You know, Brandon, 645 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: I think square, I actually said that. You know, it's 646 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 1: Brandon's room, but everybody that d line room has a voice.
