My friend Johnny. 18 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting because you're gonna be on the field. 19 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: It's kind of like you're a sideline reporter with the 20 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: open mic. You know a co host, and I'll be 21 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 1: up in the radio tower. And I say tower because 22 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 1: I tweeted you a picture of it today, the initial 23 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: construction of the radio platform at the Houston Methodist Training Center. 24 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. I wanted the thing fence high, but 25 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: it's a two or three feet higher than fence high, 26 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be huge. I'm kind of afraid that 27 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien walks by the thing and says, no, no, no, 28 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: not doing this. But I can just look on his face. Yeah, Vandy, 29 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: what I can't have that? You think to have that 30 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: in Tennessee? No, I mean it's it's awesome. Yeah. If 31 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: it stands and stays, it's fantastic. Because you have you'll 32 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: have the best view that in the house I will 33 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: of anybody. It'll be a Greenbriar like view. They're gonna 34 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: want a camera up there. They're gonna bring Tommy or 35 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 1: somebody up there to shoot because it's so nice. It's 36 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: the Bear Bryant Tower, the Vander Bryant Tower. I'm gonna 37 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna name it. There's branding possibilities here. I should 38 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: call Greg Rissa make sure we can get that done. 39 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: Maybe you know, call it the HB Tower or whatever 40 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: at the Houston Methodis Training Center will double up. I 41 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be fun to watch practice like that, 42 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: But it's kind of like being on a hill if 43 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: we had a hill, like Flowery Branch, Georgia is set 44 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 1: up like that. I think Denver had a little hill, 45 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 1: so some of these practice facilities have that, so it's 46 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: as if we had one, but it's used as it's flat. 47 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: I created my own hill, thank you. Yeah, Well, Dever 48 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: had a closet too, so yeah, where we did a 49 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 1: show from Yeah, where we did a show from which 50 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: not that instance in particular, but past training camps are 51 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: gonna come up in our discus later on in the show, 52 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: and you'll see what I'm talking about in the next 53 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: segment because I wrote my daily brew today, as I've 54 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: been doing, I do my five top fives, and this 55 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: one is all about training camp. And I will put 56 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: you on a spot in the next segment to answer 57 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: these five categories. And I gave you like it heads 58 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: up as in all of about thirty seconds before the show, 59 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: I sent this to you.

Who is the most intriguing? Now 62 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: I did five of each, from five down to one. 63 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: You just have to give me one. Who is the 64 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: most intriguing veteran? A guy it's already been here. Who's 65 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: the most intriguing new player? Who's a name? What is 66 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: a name to know? As in, maybe there's a guy 67 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: on this roster, maybe he's been here, preferably a guy 68 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: that's been here and maybe people don't know about Maybe 69 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: he plays huge role, maybe he doesn't, but hey, it's 70 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: maybe something we need to keep an eye on. Training camp. 71 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: Also that don't forget about me, a guy that's been 72 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: around for a year or two, maybe even three. Hey, 73 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: don't forget about me. We're talking about a lot of 74 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: these other guys. Don't forget about me. And then lasted 75 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: certainly not least top training camp story since twenty fourteen. 76 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: I put twenty fourteen because that's when you and I 77 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: started doing training camp shows together, and I started thinking 78 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: about today, and I'm like, man train camp from twenty 79 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: fourteen on. Obviously, Bill Bryan get into building at that point. 80 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: It's it's been pretty darn fun. We've We've done a 81 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: lot during training camp I mean a lot. I've gone 82 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: to a lot of different places. I almost killed you 83 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: in Green Bay by accident and the car. Yeah, that's true. 84 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: I forgot about that. It didn't even make the top five. 85 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: I don't know why that should have. I had need 86 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: to revise my top five because that should have. That 87 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,600 Speaker 1: should have gotten in there. My god, oh my goodness. 88 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: Now I make it though, Johnny. Did we make it 89 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: in time? Not only did we make it on time, 90 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: we made it before it finished his show. See and 91 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: the hotel it like ted of for a twenty minute 92 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: drive and made it. Yeah, for the people that don't 93 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: know what what happened. We were in Green Bay last 94 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: year and we had been doing the show from the hotel, 95 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: and the hotel is in downtown green Bay. Now, downtown 96 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: green Bay is akin to like downtown Conro. Maybe I 97 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 1: guess it's not. It's not big downtown. You're not gonna 98 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: get stuck in downtown like you gotta make it from 99 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: downtown to NRG at five forty five, you know, you 100 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: could forget it. But this is downtown green Bay. And 101 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,679 Speaker 1: we realized that we were having a lot of trouble 102 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: with the hotel WiFi. We were staying we couldn't get 103 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: the show. We couldn't get things to to work right 104 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: with our computers and our technology and all that. So 105 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: I just looked at you and said, go get the 106 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: car and i'll pack up and we'll just go. And 107 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: you ran and got the car. I jumped in and 108 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: it was probably about a twelve to thirteen minute drive. 109 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: Possibly we made it in like seven and a half minutes. 110 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: I think we ran every light, we drove through a neighborhood. 111 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: I swear to you, probably about eighty miles an hour. 112 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: And we pulled into Lambeau's parking lot and I remember 113 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: you dropping me off in front. I looked and went, 114 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: it's five fifty two man made. We made it. We 115 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: made him plenty of time. We were pulling our hair 116 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: out a little bit. And then we ended up doing 117 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 1: the show live from there, and I think the General 118 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: joined us too, so we had to tell him that story. 119 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: But that was our story from Green Band. Oh, my 120 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: family's not listening right now because my kids already think 121 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: it's just terrible. But look, I will not run a 122 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: rest flight unless nobody's around. There was listen, there was nobody. 123 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: There was nobody around that we knew of at that 124 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: particular moment, but yeah, man, that was I kept it 125 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: more kind of a thirty thousand foot view, So we'll 126 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: take it from that perspective. Mark, we got to start 127 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: off with a little bit of news and then we're 128 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: gonna hear from Bill Lebrin and Jackie should be but 129 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of news today coming from the Texans 130 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: send out transaction listing and two players are put on 131 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: the active Physically unable to Perform list. Now, again, keep 132 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: in mind, we reiterate this every single training camp. Players 133 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: can come off of this in a day, a week, 134 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: two and a half weeks. All the way through training 135 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: camp to the very last day, We've seen a lot 136 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: of players start on this list, and sometimes it can 137 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: be not passing a physical. Sometimes it can just be, hey, 138 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: they just need another couple of weeks to be fully 139 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: and completely healed from an offseason surgery. And that is 140 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: seemingly the case for the two players on active PUP, 141 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: and that is Dylan Cole and Gary on Conney. Now, 142 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: Dylan tours ACL and I believe late November, early December, 143 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: I know it was I know it was double digit weeks. 144 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: It was like week eleven week twelfth something of that magnitude. 145 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: Gary and Kindley had an offseason surgery apparently, and so 146 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: it sounds as if both of them are just maybe 147 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: need a little bit more time. And I hope that's 148 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: what it is, Mark, because these two guys are gonna 149 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: play huge role for this team on the defense and 150 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: special teams in twenty twenty for sure. Yeah, I mean, 151 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: you love Cole, I know they love Cole and Kindly 152 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: hugely important. Like you said, they both are special teams 153 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: captain for Cole and and all likelihood again, and I 154 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: just think that you're looking at a situation where, like 155 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: you said, you just can't read between the lines here. 156 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: This is what it is. I mean, it's active pup 157 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: to start camp. They like you said, they could come 158 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: off tomorrow. It could take a few more days or weeks, 159 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 1: but let's just hope they get back soon. And the 160 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: fact that O'Brien said zero positive so far so far. Look, 161 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: there's I doubt they get to the whole year like this, 162 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: but this is a really good start that they have. 163 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: That's big. That's really big when you consider what over 164 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: sixty five around the league as of now. Yeah. Absolutely, 165 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: and we're gonna get to that in just a second, 166 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: because today was an opportunity for Hey coach and general 167 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: manager Bill O'Brien Executive vice president of football Operations Jack 168 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: Easterby to meet with the Houston media that included Mark 169 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: and myself. We as we typically do, we kind of 170 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 1: sit back and let the media have their their opportunity 171 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: to ask questions, and right out of the shoot, no surprise, 172 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: the media wanted to know what's the update on DeShawn 173 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: Watson contract. You know, we're not gonna talk about contracts 174 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: in the media, but you know, we we obviously have 175 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: stated uh and we we have so much belief in Deshaun. 176 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: We love Deshaun, we want him here for a long time. 177 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 1: But you know, we're not gonna we're not gonna, you know, 178 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: negotiate contracts or do anything like that through the media. Well, 179 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: we'll keep that between us and and Deshawn's representatives. But 180 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, he's here, he's he's excited, and we're excited 181 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: about about the season. Mark. I think if you were 182 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: a betting type and you bet any other way, oh yeah, 183 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: he'll talk about it. There's no there's no chance in 184 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: hades that Bill O'Brien was going to talk about a 185 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: contract of any player, much less one as important as 186 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. So if that was, if that answer was 187 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: surprising in any way, shape or form, then you haven't 188 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: been paying attention to the last seven seasons or six seasons, 189 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: however long Bill's been here. I was not surprised by that, 190 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: were you at all? It's the only answer, Johnny. You 191 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: can't say, well, his writer is giving us a lot 192 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: of problems. He wants fresh grapes every morning, and I 193 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: mean seriously, he's not going to get into details. He 194 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: wants five years we want to give him. No, No, 195 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: he's not going to tell you anything, and he wants 196 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: him around here for a long time. We'd all love 197 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: to know what's going on with the negotiations. We'd love 198 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: to read the emails, but we can't. So let's just 199 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: wait for it to happen. And I hope it happens 200 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: like tonight. Yes, I'm with you, and listen, I totally 201 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:03,120 Speaker 1: and completely understand the question being asked. Yeah, I completely 202 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: understand that you yes, but you know what the answer 203 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 1: is going to be. But you know you have to 204 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: ask the question. But you know, I'm glad you brought 205 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: it up. You know, in fairness to the reporters, they 206 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: have to ask that question. If you do not ask 207 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 1: that question, you know, if you're Sarah Barshop and you 208 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: go back to ESPN and that question was not asked 209 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,319 Speaker 1: by at least you or somebody, right, Yeah, they're gonna say, 210 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: why didn't you ask the contract question with Watson? I mean, 211 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: it's an obvious news question to ask. So I mean 212 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: not that she asked it. I don't know who asked it. 213 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: But the point is it had to get asked, and 214 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: everybody gets their answer and you move on. If you 215 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: press him on it, now you have other problems, No, coach, 216 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: we really need to know. We want to know the amount. 217 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 1: We want to know how many years. No, that's when 218 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: you get into problems. But you let him answer and 219 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: then you move on. Yeah. Absolutely, And he was later 220 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: asked a little bit more to something he was going 221 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: to answer, and that was about Deshaun's decision making. He 222 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: was asked whether what changes improvements he is seen in 223 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: DeShawn since DeShawn arrived here in twenty seventeen until now. 224 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: He's an excellent decision maker. He's a very instinctive player. 225 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 1: You know, one of his greatest traits is that he 226 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: really has an understanding. He can see the field really well. 227 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: He makes really good decisions. I think from where he 228 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: was as a rookie to where he is now, it's 229 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: it's improved leaps and bounds, and it'll continue to get 230 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: better because of all the reps he gets in practice 231 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: and how well he understands the pro game now. But 232 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: he's a very instinctive player, and he's a he's an 233 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:32,839 Speaker 1: excellent decision maker. I mean you have to agree. I mean, 234 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 1: you see the things that he does. You hear how 235 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: he talks, you know, after games, and what he sees. 236 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: I mean, watch that film session was so impressive. And 237 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: then I go back to what David Shaw said about 238 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 1: him when he watched practice with Deshaun, when Deshaun was 239 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: a freshman going into his sophomore year watching practice with him, 240 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: and he just raved about DeShawn and what he saw 241 00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: and how he sees it and his brain. As David 242 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: Shaw pointed out, but it was cool to hear coach 243 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: today Mark talk about the improvements he's made and how 244 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: things have changed. And the one thing you and I 245 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: talked about with the Sean. I think it was last 246 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: I think it was last year, and I think I 247 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 1: asked him the question. I said, did you sense the 248 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: game slowing down for you? And he's like absolutely, And 249 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: I think I was going into either. I think it 250 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: was going into twenty nineteen. I said, you sense it 251 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: slowing down? And it's like absolutely, each and every rep 252 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: I take, every game I play, the game slows down. 253 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 1: And when you have that feeling, it doesn't technically slow down, 254 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: but it allows you to process faster because you sense 255 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: it slowing down because you know exactly what you're looking at. 256 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: You know what decision you need to make, and now 257 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: he's got more weapons around him Mark to be able 258 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: to make those decisions. Johnny, it's the fourth year. It's 259 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: like the fourth album for a classic rock band like 260 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: let Zeppe plain In four, which is not the name 261 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: of the albut's untitled, but the one with Stairway to 262 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: Heaven and Black Dog and rock and Roll. They're widely 263 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: accepted as their best work. Aerosmith rocks Okay, their best 264 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: album by far, by a billion miles. And I'll argue 265 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: anybody into the ground on this one. A lot of 266 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: bands hit that groove in album number four for Watson, 267 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: this is year four. This is a really interesting time. 268 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: You know, you hope that the new deal's done before 269 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: he gets into year four. But regardless, he's gonna be 270 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: out there with the wealth of history of experience behind 271 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: him and still so young and so spry. This is 272 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: gonna be a fun season. Yes, absolutely. Now things are 273 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: a little different, There's no question about that. You and 274 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: I've been talking about that. I've been down in the 275 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: building on the service level. Everything is different. From the 276 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: connect songs we've got to wear, which Jackie should be 277 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: talked about and showed on the zoom call, to hand 278 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: waving in front of doors for them to open, to 279 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: facial recognition, I mean, everything is different. And Coach and 280 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: Bryan spoke on how everything is different at Energy and 281 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: throughout the NFL. You know, we had our first team 282 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: meeting yesterday. We're in the bubble. We're meeting in the bubble. 283 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: Uh are people who have done a great job of 284 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: setting up the bubble. Everybody from our operations people to 285 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: our video people. Um, you know, everybody's done an unbelievable 286 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: job getting this building ready. Our cafeterias is different. There's 287 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: there's uh, auxiliary cafeterias that we can use. Uh, it's 288 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: just you know, it's just different. And then when you're 289 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: standing up in front of the team and you have 290 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: a mask on and they all have masks on and 291 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: everybody's really you know, distanced. Uh, there's no different. There's 292 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: no doubt that it's different. Yeah, it's definitely different. A 293 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: little question uh in that at all. Now it's also 294 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: going to be different, Brandon. Let's move ahead to number eighteen. 295 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: Have it ready in the fact that, as Mark has 296 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: pointed out, no preseason games this year, first time I 297 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: heard you talking about this morning with Seawan and Seth 298 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: the first time in as far and forever I think 299 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: history that there's no preseason games. And dearly, Yeah, definitely 300 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: for the Texans, we know that that for a fact, 301 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: there's no preseason games. And coacher Brian was asked, well, 302 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: what do you do? How do you go about a 303 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 1: situation when you don't have preseason games? And obviously, well, 304 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: it's gonna be different without them. I think that's gonna 305 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: be different. I really do. I think that, Um, we're 306 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: gonna have to plan at least two or three scrimmages, 307 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: and I think that's also going to be different for coaches, 308 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: where coaches aren't going to be able to have those 309 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: preseason games to hirn out some of the communication, you know, 310 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: from from the sideline to the press box and things 311 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: like that, and substitutions during a game. So you know, 312 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: we've planned on a couple of scrimmages that we're gonna have, 313 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: maybe even more than that to work on everything and 314 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: to give players an opportunity to get on film, bring 315 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: bring officials in here, and give players an opportunity to 316 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: get on film and do some things that you know, uh, 317 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: they would have been able to do or show in 318 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: preseason games. I think that's a that's a big, you know, 319 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: big thing that is missing. But we're all we're all 320 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: dealing with it. Um. But I think that's uh, part 321 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: of our planning is how do we how do we 322 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: substitute for those preseason games. I think the other one, 323 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 1: I think everybody on this call knows that I enjoy 324 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: the joint scrimmages. You know, when we when we scrimmage. 325 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: Over the years, we've done it, I think twelve or 326 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: thirteen times. You know, those are things that we love 327 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 1: to do. But we're not gonna be able to do 328 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: those either, you know, scrimmage, the Saints scrimmage, the Falcons, 329 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: the Broncos, all the teams that we scrimmage. Uh So 330 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 1: again we're gonna have to break it up during training 331 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: camp and have some like I said, have some scrimmages 332 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: and try to get these guys ready for the season. Yeah, 333 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: as far as those joint practices go, we had two 334 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: different teams that we would practice with every year that 335 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: Bill has been here, other than twenty fifteen, because that 336 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 1: was the hard knocks year and we're going to do 337 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: the Saints, and the Saints we're like, nah, I know 338 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: on hard knocks around here, and so we ended up 339 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: against the Washington football team. That was the only time 340 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: we've had one. Every other year it's been one on 341 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: the road one back here. We've had that, you know, 342 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: ever ever since coach has been here. At twenty fourteen 343 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: when I started with the Land at Home, then Denver, 344 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen was Washington and Richmond, and then twenty sixteen 345 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: we went out to San Francisco, and I think back 346 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 1: here for the Saints twenty seventeen we were at the Greenbriar, 347 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: but we had the Patriots to the Greenbriar. Then we 348 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: went to New Orleans twenty eighteen. What do we even 349 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen? Mark, Oh, we were at the Greenbriar, but 350 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: then practice that year. Wait, you got bad had too? Oh? 351 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: Yeah they were yeah right, the forty nine ers came, 352 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: they came here because I remember Garoppolo. I remember Garoppolo came. 353 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: And then at twenty nineteen we had the Packers up 354 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: there and then Detroit here. So those have been hugely important. 355 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: And here's the other aspect of this, Mark that's gonna 356 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: be really, really, really interesting. From a personnel side, you 357 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: have no joint practices to go off of, you have 358 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: no preseason game games to watch, so you have, from 359 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: an evaluation standpoint, you've got nothing to go off of, 360 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 1: especially young guys coming into the league other than here's 361 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: what they look like in college. And if you think 362 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: about those players, most of them you haven't even seen 363 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: at a pro day. Last time you saw him was 364 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: the last time they played a game. You will not 365 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:26,880 Speaker 1: have a pro day. You will not have a lot 366 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: of times an interview with some guys. If you didn't 367 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: get a chance interview with the combine, you didn't have 368 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: pro day. You didnt see him work out from that perspective, 369 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: you won't see him in preseason. You won't see a 370 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: joy practice, none of that. The personnel staffs around the 371 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:43,479 Speaker 1: league are on full notice to somehow find a way 372 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: to get info about this in every team around the league, 373 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: and that's gonna be the challenge for the Texans as well. Well. 374 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,199 Speaker 1: Don't you have players every year who don't make a 375 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: roster but end up becoming maybe stars for somebody else, 376 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: never mind solid players like Truvan Williams is a guy 377 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: who comes to mind who was in camp here in 378 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 1: the Texans, just didn't see it, and he ends up 379 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: having a long career in Green Bay. But I think 380 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: this year, Johnny, you're gonna get a few more like that. 381 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: And by a few, I mean that would be a 382 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: good over under. I mean you might get seven guys 383 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: who were cut but end up being really good players 384 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: elsewhere because you just didn't get a long enough look. 385 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: So it's not just picking the right guys for your team, 386 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: it's who's leaving the building and they're they ultimately gonna 387 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: make it for somebody else. You know, it is tougher. 388 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: I forget who said it it's still maybe. O'Brien himself 389 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: said it, it's still possible for players to catch on, 390 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: for players to shine, for players to make the team 391 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: out of nowhere. It's just extremely difficult. It's more difficult 392 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: than ever, but it's certainly possible. Yeah, you're right, it 393 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: is possible, There's no question. But I don't one of 394 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 1: the things about those joint practices, those scouts are scouts 395 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 1: were working overtime watching, yeah, the other side, and you know, 396 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: obviously in the preseason games. You know, they're working overtime 397 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: to see all the preseason games around the league. So 398 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: interesting times for the pro personnel staffs throughout the league. 399 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: And this is one of those years where the pro 400 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: personnel staffs are gonna have to be relying on the 401 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: college guy, the guys that work to colleges to get 402 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: information from those guys, Hey what do you think you know, 403 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: and really work together the Texans staff as they already 404 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: do that, but it's this year where they're gonna have 405 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 1: to work even more. Okay, Jackie uster Be also spoke 406 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: with us today, So we'll hit a few of Jack's 407 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: comments on the other side, and then we will get 408 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: into my five top five from training camp, heading into 409 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: training camp, mosed treating veteran mostion, treating a new player, 410 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 1: a name to no, Don't Forget about Me, and the 411 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,719 Speaker 1: top training camp story since twenty fourteen.

But Executive vice President Football Operations, 514 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: Jackie Easterby has now been with the team probably a 515 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,199 Speaker 1: full calendar year now going into a second season, and 516 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: he is is man, what what doesn't Jack do? Around 517 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: the building? He and Bill O'Brien have worked tirelessly to 518 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: make things happen for the Texans in free agency, in 519 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 1: the draft, around the building with COVID. It's been it's 520 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: been crazy what those who have been been able to 521 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: get done. And Jack said today sort of major lesson 522 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: that he has learned in this pandemic. Before I answer 523 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: that question, let me take it away from this specific 524 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 1: situation in sports, and let me just say a great 525 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: lesson I've learned through this. Um. You know, as we've 526 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 1: begun to try to create an awesome atmosphere for our 527 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: players here at the stadium, one of the things that's 528 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: happened is, I know, personally, I've been educated so much 529 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: on healthcare, educated so much on all of the things 530 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: that happened around the country and around the world to 531 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: try to keep people safe. UM, I've spent so much 532 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 1: time with doctors and with infectious control experts who've educated 533 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: me about things that I honestly have ever known about 534 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: or didn't have an understanding completely about. So I feel like, 535 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: just in general, this has been a great experience for 536 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: me to add empathy to just how much healthcare workers 537 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: matter in our country. How much doctors matter in our country, 538 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: how much athletic training, how much nutrition, how much sanitation. 539 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: All those things matter in our country, in our offices, 540 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: in all the different places all over the country. It 541 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: just matter. And make sure that you know your broadcast 542 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: crew matters. To Jack, just so you know, Mark and 543 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: I matter as well. Now I'm kidding about that, but 544 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: I think he brings up a good point mark in 545 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 1: that it's one of those things where we do kind 546 00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: of get in our own little silo of what it 547 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: is that we do and how we go about it. 548 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: And I think sometimes we contend, not does you and I, 549 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: but I think everybody and Jack pointed out for him too, 550 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: we can sort of focus on our silos so much 551 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: that we don't broaden our horizons a little bit and 552 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: look at all the good that so many groups of 553 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: people are doing. And obviously during his pandemic, so many 554 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: different groups the essential workers have been out there doing 555 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: all of that for us so that we can do 556 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: our jobs, and that is hopefully to bring a championship 557 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: here to Houston and do great thanks for the city 558 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: of Houston, as we have been challenged to do by 559 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: leib Bob McNair and the McNair family. You know, it's 560 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: funny you mentioned it with Jack. You know, we've been 561 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: working with him for about a year and a half almost, 562 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: and then you look at how this was such a 563 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,479 Speaker 1: public day for him. You know, he's been on with 564 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: us after the draft and everything, but he really hasn't 565 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 1: done a ton of stuff out there, and I thought 566 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: he did great, and I think it's great that everyone 567 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: understands how important he is to the organization right now. 568 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: And he's such a student of life. I mean, he's 569 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: constantly learning, constantly absorbing information. The Texans are huge into 570 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: analytics now and it's been a gradual thing. But also 571 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: I would say that what they've done in the last 572 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: year and a half, two years, well year and a 573 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: half really, with Easterby and Bill O'Brien teaming up on this, 574 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: they've taken some big steps, the biggest steps they've ever 575 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: taken as an organization. So it's really gonna be very 576 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: cool to see how that affects them on the field. 577 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: And it was good to hear from Jack today overall. Yeah, 578 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: let's let's get to that cut about players that were 579 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: added this offseason and what they were what they were 580 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: looking for, because obviously there's a lot that happened this 581 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:29,479 Speaker 1: offseason and Jack was asked about that and they, you know, 582 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: and Jack talked about what it is they were looking 583 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,719 Speaker 1: for in players that they were bringing to the organization, 584 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: even before COVID was even a thought. This is what 585 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: they wanted to do, Brandon. Let's get to that last 586 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: cut of players added this offseason. This offseason, as we've added, 587 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, Coach and I have been very intentional right 588 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 1: about the type of people and players that we've added 589 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: to support the initiative that's going on in our program 590 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: right now, which is dependable, tough, smart. You know, coaches 591 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,560 Speaker 1: set it ad nauseum from the microphone and in our 592 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: locker rooms and at every corner of our building. Dependable guys, 593 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: tough guys and smart guys. And so whether it's the draft, 594 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: or it's free agency or its other means, you know, 595 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: that's the goals to add people that fit those attributes. 596 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 1: And we think we've done that, and we're really excited 597 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: about those guys, and quite frankly, it's time for some 598 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: of that to actually hit the ground and start right 599 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,719 Speaker 1: as them getting time together and start really getting out 600 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: there and hopefully those values and some of those awesome 601 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: leadership trades transition into our locker room quickly over the 602 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,080 Speaker 1: next few days. Yeah, and it's gonna have to be 603 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: that way. This is one of those years Mark where 604 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: leaning on the Vets rookies, I mean, they haven't had 605 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: that much time with the Vets, but when they get 606 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: that time, they really have got to soak in that 607 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: knowledge and ask questions about everything. I mean, the city 608 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: of Houston, asking questions about the city of Houston. Where 609 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: do I live, what do I do? Where should I go? 610 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: Other than well you should go to the stadium at home? 611 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: But how do I handle this? For some guys it 612 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: might be the first time they've ever had a checking account. 613 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many different things that the veterans 614 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: are going to be able to impart that wisdom onto 615 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: the young guys. And it is a vital time at 616 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: the beginning of training camp when they dive right in 617 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: and things are gonna be going fast and furious, you know, 618 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: for these rookies and for the young for the vets 619 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 1: that have come to this organization as well, for those 620 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: guys to talk to the other vets, hey, you know 621 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: what about this? And obviously on the field, the offensive scheme, 622 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: the defensive scheme, what they do in special teams. That's 623 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 1: gonna be something that if you've played around this league, 624 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to adapt to these rookies. Obviously 625 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to lean on those vets, probably probably 626 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: big more this year than then, maybe ever before because 627 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: of what we've gone through. If you're a rookie, you know, 628 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: it's funny we're talking about rookie younger players. Are they 629 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: going to be good? So to speak? Are they gonna 630 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 1: stick to work at home and that's their routine for 631 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: the next few months. That's what I think you have 632 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: to do. And I think a lot of these guys will. 633 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: I think the way they've vetted these guys, they're gonna 634 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: know that these people are the type to be total 635 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: professionals about the way they go about this thing. And 636 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 1: I know it's not ideal, like you said, the city 637 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 1: of Houston all that it has to offer, although we're 638 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:17,840 Speaker 1: in the pandemic right now and a lot of stuff 639 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: isn't what it is usually. I just think it's so 640 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: important to focus on the game itself because that's your profession. 641 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,439 Speaker 1: You want to make the most of these few years. 642 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: If it is a few years or whatever you got. 643 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 1: It might be a few months, might be one month. 644 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 1: For some of these guys, you want to make the 645 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: most of it. So let's hope they stick to it. Okay, 646 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 1: they're getting into training camp. Yep, yep, you've heard the 647 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: promos right here on Sports Radio six ten. They depending 648 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 1: on how you want a title list, whether this is 649 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: the offseason moved forward. We will be out there August fourteenth. 650 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: That's really kind of when we get a chance to 651 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: see them at practice. Really won't put the pads on 652 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: for another few days. But training camp is around the corner, 653 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: or it's here. It depends on semantic, so to speak. 654 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: So today I did my five top fives as it 655 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,919 Speaker 1: pertained to training camp. Now, I did five for each 656 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: one of these. Mark, you don't have to. You can 657 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,280 Speaker 1: give me a name, he can give me a couple names, 658 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna give you the five categories. You tell 659 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: me who this player would be. Let's start with in 660 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: your opinion, and I put that on every single one 661 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: in my opinion. In your opinion, the most intriguing veteran 662 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: on this roster a guy that was here with the 663 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: Texans that we're going to see now. I tried to 664 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 1: stay away from de Sean JJ Laramie. I tried to 665 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: go you know those guys are I don't I got it, 666 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 1: I got it, I got it. Okay, Well, the most 667 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: intriguing veteran in your opinion is Will Fuller is in 668 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: the same page. Okay, I didn't even look at yours, 669 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: by the way, but Will Fuller to me, is it, 670 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 1: especially after hearing what you said about the way the 671 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: physique looks that he looks a little beefier, which you know, 672 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: that's gonna be interesting to see how it plays out 673 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: on the field and as we get to camp and 674 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: losing weight and everything and being out in the hot sun, 675 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 1: we'll see. But I think Will Fuller is the guy. 676 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you have no DeAndre Hopkins here anymore. We 677 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: know that when Will's on the field healthy, Uh, he 678 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: really is the number one guy. I mean, that's what 679 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 1: That's what it was. But the question is can you 680 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: remain out there on the field and be the number 681 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 1: one guy? And that's what we all want to see. 682 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 1: So I think he's the most intriguing veteran, you know, 683 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,959 Speaker 1: returning veteran on this roster. Right now, Brandon, you still 684 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: have cut from Bill cut twenty three about Will? Do 685 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 1: you have that? All? Right? Let's hear what Bill O'Brian 686 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: had to say about Will Fuller, because he was asked 687 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: about the fifth year wide receiver from Notre Dame. I 688 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 1: think you know, he showed, he's showed up and he's 689 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,319 Speaker 1: in great shape. Um, looks good. He's been working out, 690 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: working hard. Um, he's excited about the season, he's excited 691 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 1: about our offense, and we're excited about having him for 692 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 1: sixteen games. You know, he looks as good as he's 693 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,959 Speaker 1: ever looked. Um And uh that that, you know, makes 694 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 1: us happy, makes us feel like we're gonna get off 695 00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: on the right foot here. I didn't recognize him when 696 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: I saw him, Mark, I recognize him, dreads are gone. 697 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 1: He looked like, you know, back at Notre Dame, which 698 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 1: I should recognize him. But just when you see him, 699 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,399 Speaker 1: you go, oh, wait, who is that? Oh? That's Will. 700 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,840 Speaker 1: So the one other thing though about him is he 701 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: you can tell he's put on He's put on some 702 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,280 Speaker 1: mass when he talked about that, and hopefully it doesn't 703 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: slow him down. And I don't think it will. Okay, 704 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 1: my five top fives, that was number one. Number two, Who, 705 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 1: in your opinion, is the most intriguing new player, be 706 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: it rookie traded for or free agent signy Gosh. I 707 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 1: hate to stay at the wide receiver position, but I 708 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: really think it's Cooks. This guy's a You and I 709 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: have been doing way too many shows together. Yeah, I 710 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,319 Speaker 1: know this guy's it's like Andre, you know, the three 711 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 1: of us can finish each other's sentences. But this guy 712 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: is a game breaker, Johnny. I mean, I think that 713 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,439 Speaker 1: people don't understand what you're getting here. They're looking last 714 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: year's stats and you fall into that last year trap. 715 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: He is not an old player. Okay, he can still 716 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,839 Speaker 1: run like the wind. He was in a situation last 717 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 1: year where they couldn't get him the ball. He the mirror. 718 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 1: And here's the thing. The numbers don't have to be 719 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: a ton better for him to be a huge factor 720 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: if Will's healthy, Because my gosh, if you're a defense, uh, 721 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 1: you know, what are you gonna do? You got Fuller, 722 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: you got Cooks, you got Cob coming underneath. Maybe COB's 723 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: gonna make some big plays for you. Anyway, you got 724 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 1: all the other guys we talk about. I think Cooks 725 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,840 Speaker 1: is the one here now. The one I'm most curious 726 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 1: about physically is David Johnson. I want to see how 727 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: David Johnson looks like you would say on the hoof 728 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: and all that. See how he looks in practice carrying 729 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 1: the ball, catching the ball. You know what, what does 730 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 1: he look like? Physically out there. We never saw Carlos 731 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: Hyde in training camp last year because they picked him 732 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 1: up Labor Labor Day weekend. But I think David Johnson 733 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: he carries a lot of curiosity for me. Those are 734 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 1: my top two. Brandon Cooks one, wow, David Johnson too well. 735 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: Number three was Eric Murray, Number four is Ross Blacklock, 736 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: and number five was Randall cop And I felt that 737 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: kind of putting Rando at five because it made it 738 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: seem like, oh, you're not excited to see him, not 739 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: at all. I'm really excited to see Randall. But I 740 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 1: think with Randall, I don't want to say we kind 741 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: of know what we're gonna get, but I feel like 742 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 1: I feel like we do. I feel like we're gonna 743 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 1: get trustworthy slot receiver who can do a lot of 744 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 1: different things for you. But Brandy Cooks, with that speed 745 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 1: on the outside and some many the different things that 746 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: he could do. That's that was really kind of the difference. 747 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 1: But I'm intrigued about both of them. But Brandy Cooks 748 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: was number one. Okay, let's get the next one. Okay. 749 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: Number three, give me a name to know that maybe 750 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 1: people don't know about whether it's somebody that's been here mine. 751 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: I cheated on this one a little bit. I actually 752 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 1: gave some. I gave the people a name that they 753 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:00,840 Speaker 1: needed to know, but I had some keep people on 754 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 1: my top five that I do think people need to 755 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 1: keep an eye on that. Maybe some people out there 756 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: don't know about for a particular reason. Give me a 757 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 1: name to know that maybe people don't know about. Well, 758 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 1: are we talking? So it could be a guy who's here. Yeah, 759 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I think Angelo Blackson always comes 760 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 1: to mind in this kind of category because Angelo Blackson's 761 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: so reliable. He's the type of player that they love. 762 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: You know, he's a worker. It's not a glamorous name here. 763 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,399 Speaker 1: This is not a glamour thing here. I'm giving he's 764 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: he's an in the trenches guy. But he's been solid 765 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:45,879 Speaker 1: out there for them and playing that D line very well. Look, 766 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 1: he's not gonna go to the Pro Bowl, but he's 767 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,439 Speaker 1: gonna help you win football games. And you need him, 768 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 1: You need Doney, you need these guys to step up 769 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,319 Speaker 1: because you don't have DJ Reader And we all want 770 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,320 Speaker 1: to see what Blacklock does. But he's a rookie, so 771 00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:58,879 Speaker 1: let's just wait and see. I know it's a different 772 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 1: kind of position though, the way they'll light him up. 773 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: But it's all important upfront. I chose defensive tackle as well. Okay, 774 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: but I chose rookie defensive tackle A Zoya a la 775 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 1: Foyer because that literally is a name you got to 776 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: figure out how to say. So that's oh boy, that's 777 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 1: what That's what I went with. Okay, I got two more. 778 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,800 Speaker 1: Let's hit these on the other side. And the NFL 779 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: has made a decision on one Antonio Brown, that is, 780 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: if he decides to come out of retirement. We'll do 781 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 1: all that next right here on our last segment of 782 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:35,439 Speaker 1: the week of Texans Axis.

We talk about the 878 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:26,959 Speaker 1: don't forget about me players, the guys that we haven't 879 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 1: really talked about in the offseason. Maybe there's been a 880 00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: trade at a particular position, or there's been draft picks, 881 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:36,439 Speaker 1: there have been signees that have been there, but it's like, hey, man, 882 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 1: don't forget about me. I'm still here. Who would you 883 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 1: put in that category? Who is your number one? Don't 884 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 1: forget about me player? You know I was gonna say, 885 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 1: You know, I could say Angela Blackson again or DJ 886 00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,240 Speaker 1: dunning You know, Boxon was in my top five because 887 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 1: Brandon Dunne. You know, don't forget about me. I started 888 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 1: ten games a couple of years ago, and I can 889 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:00,399 Speaker 1: do that again, and I might need to. Don't forget 890 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 1: about me, but let me go here with you, Jordan Thomas, 891 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,399 Speaker 1: Because Jordan Thomas, who caught four tds two years ago. 892 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:10,839 Speaker 1: Last year, he sees Aikens have a very nice year 893 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:13,799 Speaker 1: and Darren Fells have a career year. Right, So now 894 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen with Kahlee Wearing wanted to make a 895 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 1: statement after sitting out last year on injured reserve. For 896 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,520 Speaker 1: the most part, Jordan Thomas, don't forget about me, because 897 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm still here. I want to prove myself. I've got 898 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 1: to make this team, you know, and not only that, 899 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,399 Speaker 1: I've got to be really good if I'm gonna play, 900 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 1: if I'm going to catch touchdowns again, I've got to 901 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 1: not move ahead of these guys necessarily, but show what 902 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: I can do be a part of a package or 903 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: two or whatever. I mean, I got tremendous size, I 904 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 1: can run and Johnny I love his personality. You know 905 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 1: what Jordan Thomas is, He's like, all right, he's the 906 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:52,240 Speaker 1: OJ's love train right now. Bear with me here, because 907 00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 1: if you're in a bad mood, you put on the 908 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,160 Speaker 1: OJ's love training, you're not in a bad mood anymore. 909 00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 1: If you're in a bad mood, you see Jordan Thomas 910 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 1: in the hall when he smile, and you're not in 911 00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 1: a bad mood anymore because he has the ability to 912 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,359 Speaker 1: put people in a good mood with a smile. That's 913 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 1: Jordan Thomas, the gentle giant, right am, I right now? 914 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 1: It might not be the OJ's love train for some 915 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,520 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe it's earth Wind and Fire. Uh September, they 916 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,000 Speaker 1: got a lot of them. Earth Wind and Fire is 917 00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 1: probably the best feel good band ever, right agreed? Ever, 918 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you cannot be in a bad mood listening 919 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 1: to earth Wind and Fire. Their music is not like 920 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: this dark sad music. It's always happy. It's great. Yeah, 921 00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. I picked I picked another 922 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,360 Speaker 1: pass catcher who picked the receiver. Again. I didn't realize 923 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:37,280 Speaker 1: until I just looked at this again. I picked receivers 924 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:42,799 Speaker 1: is number one. I picked Kiki Qt. I'm who's not 925 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 1: a thousand percent convinced yet that it's over. Well, they 926 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:51,799 Speaker 1: winning at Randall com I cooks. I understand, I get that. 927 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 1: I understand. This is a guy that, in two games 928 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 1: against the Cult is a rookie at twenty two catches 929 00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 1: and two games eleven incredible. He's incodible talent, He's got ability. 930 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:07,600 Speaker 1: He can do this and playing the slot and be 931 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 1: a big time threat, And maybe it happens. Do not, don't. 932 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 1: I think it's been really easy to talk. Well, you know, 933 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 1: the four or five receivers are gonna be this and 934 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,400 Speaker 1: this and this and this this. Very rarely do we 935 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:23,239 Speaker 1: bring up Kiki's name. Yeah, don't think we can forget 936 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 1: about him. It's a great point. You know, the old 937 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: Charlie Ups golf swing. That's how good you are. That's 938 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: how good he can be. Right, those two games against 939 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 1: the Colts, all those catches, that's how good he can be. 940 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:37,279 Speaker 1: Can he get back to that? This time last year 941 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,720 Speaker 1: we're thinking, oh my gosh, this is gonna be huge. 942 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,439 Speaker 1: You get Fuller Qt hop out there on the field 943 00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:44,919 Speaker 1: together didn't work out that way. They found other ways 944 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 1: to move the ball. But you're right, this is a 945 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 1: huge opportunity for him. Year three gotta happen right now, 946 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: I mean year three. I remember when you know Deante 947 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:56,360 Speaker 1: Foreman going into year three, and I know if the 948 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 1: first two years were injury filled whatever, didn't get a 949 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:02,320 Speaker 1: chance to really show stuff. But you know this is big. 950 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:06,240 Speaker 1: This is a huge camp for QT right here. Yeah, absolutely, Okay. 951 00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 1: My last one, okay was top training camp memory since 952 00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. And I used twenty fourteen because that was 953 00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 1: the year you and I started doing shows together, and 954 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 1: when I got into building, and when Bill O'Brien started, 955 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 1: So it's all kind of the perfect nexus, if you will, 956 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: Top training camp memory since twenty fourteen. Well, all right, 957 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: so the second year at the Greenbrier was the most 958 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 1: fun I've ever had during training camp. I'll just crown 959 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,960 Speaker 1: that right now. Because we knew what to expect. We 960 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 1: had our houses, right, we did vrbos, We didn't stay 961 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 1: on the on the resort property, but you and I 962 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 1: did our show in the in the evening at slam 963 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 1: and Sammy Sam's needs place. Yes, of course he wasn't 964 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 1: there but we had a great time and it was 965 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,439 Speaker 1: really cool. I mean, I loved that trip. I loved 966 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,280 Speaker 1: it. It It wasn't too long, it was perfect, the weather. 967 00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 1: I mean, that's my top memory. Look, you brought up 968 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: Denver earlier, maybe I did. But the Denver preseason trip, 969 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: the practices, that was our first year with you, you know, 970 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,120 Speaker 1: traveling with us, and we had that great like the 971 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:24,240 Speaker 1: greatest preseason game ever when Tom Savage through the winning 972 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 1: TD to Riot Griffin and then a two point conversion 973 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 1: to Travis Labhart to win the game. That was fun. 974 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 1: That was I mean, now I think about the training 975 00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:35,479 Speaker 1: camp the Greenbrier, I did kind of like a thirty 976 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:37,359 Speaker 1: thousand foot view for the most part, but my number 977 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 1: one was very specific to a certain moment.
