1
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: It's just that you had to kind of an abbreviated

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: stay here in New England. But it seems like you've

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: kind of really blossomed out there in Chicago. Is it

4
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,800
Speaker 1: just something about the fit, the schemes, things like that.

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: I think it's all in compassing being in the right position,

6
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,919
Speaker 1: the right place, at the right time, everything's working together.

7
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: I think that's UM. I can attribute some of my

8
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: success to that. CAM. How do you look back on

9
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: your time with the Patriots? Loved it, man, absolutely loved it. UM,

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:33,199
Speaker 1: loved how the organization ran. UM, great coaching, UM, A

11
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 1: lot of us phenomenal things you said about that organization

12
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 1: as a whole, from the top down. UM. Finally, remember

13
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: morning meeting a quad me in about seven thirty and

14
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: I see mister Kraft coming in in the meeting room

15
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: and having a seat with the sneakers on. It was

16
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: a It was a great experience for me. Can you

17
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,160
Speaker 1: take us back to when when you were a free

18
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: agent after the twenty and fifteen seasons? From my understanding,

19
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: did Bill Belichick call you and try to sway you

20
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: back here? Most definitely there was interest on both sides.

21
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: I was interested in being back, and they interested in

22
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 1: having you bed and uh, you know just turned out

23
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: that you know, there's an opportunity for me here in Chicago,

24
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 1: and I took that opportunity. What's your reaction in the

25
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: day you heard Khalil Macka trained into the Bears, super

26
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: excited and super excited. Is another chance for me in

27
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: my career to wrestles an elite lesser like I had

28
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: it to more of a a camp ratjoritan um. Just a

29
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: great opportunity for the both of us, and it's been

30
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: fun to work together so far. How much easier hasn't

31
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: made it on everybody else to have Kleil on the

32
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: defense now? All we'll without for me? How much easier

33
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 1: hasn't made it on everybody else to have Khalil on

34
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: the defense? Now? Oh, I think that we were we

35
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: were approaching being a really good defense and added that

36
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: extra piece really helped us, you know, have just a

37
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: full hand, you know, it said, we've got a full

38
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: house over here for that way. M Can you talk

39
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: to the challenge of your parents on the Patriots? I mean,

40
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: they have a game plan offense each week and there's

41
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: so many different guys you can go to. I mean

42
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: Gronk might get the ball last week and he doesn't

43
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: even see two passes. There's Sunday. You know, give me

44
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,079
Speaker 1: the question, Well, just the challenge of preparing for a

45
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,679
Speaker 1: game plan offense like the Patriots, and there's so many

46
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: different guys they can go to, and one guy might

47
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: get the ball one week and he doesn't even see

48
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: it the next week. That's that's That's the beful thing

49
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,239
Speaker 1: about the Patriot offense through the Patriot away is that

50
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: anybody at any time can be on the field and

51
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: have to step up and play great at their position.

52
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: And I think that they're really a really good job

53
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: of knowing that personnel and knowing who's going to be successful.

54
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 1: Even when I was there just putting me in the

55
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: right places that took my talent of my capabilities. I

56
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: think that the great job of that, how do you

57
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: prepare for that? Not knowing what's gonna come? How do

58
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 1: you prepare? You prepare like for any other NFL team,

59
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: You've got a good idea of what they might do

60
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: or what they can do, But on Sunday they can

61
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: start anything that that they want to ask you. So

62
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: you just gotta d um Kim, was there a wild moment.

63
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: Obviously we know that Cleo Max is one of the

64
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 1: best pass rushers, is not the best in the league,

65
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: but it was there a wild moment once he got there,

66
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: he went, oh, my goodness, sees he's that good. Um,

67
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: I gotta say that, you know, doing his talent from

68
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: from a distance, watching him helping for all those years. Um,

69
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: you always have a good idea of how he is

70
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: as a player and how dominant Betty games and they

71
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: being able to watch him up close. Do you have

72
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: any good memories, any good stories from when you were

73
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: playing for Bill Belichick? I actually do have one a

74
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: ratter the fact when I first got there and I

75
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: would get from my first Dame game match, I had

76
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: made him play and I had like gestures to the

77
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: crowd somewhat of us to my celebration, and I got

78
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: back to the fire by and it was okay, listen,

79
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: fingers like it need that you really need that here,

80
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: and I'm I think I get the celebration, got to play.

81
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: That was that was some of my experience. Anyway, Dad,

82
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: you better gotta laugh with my joke. Was that is

83
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: that common? Was that like common to have a moment

84
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 1: where you have to visit because that's sort of like

85
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 1: the Patriot culture. Maybe is is stay humble? Do you

86
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: observe that with your teammates? Nobody with your teammates, But

87
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: that took care there. Okay, what do you see from

88
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle? You know in his first few games in

89
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 1: the NFL? Oh, really good running back. Um, had a

90
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: good vision. UM, you can't fire the hole and get loose.

91
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: Pretty explosive, UM, maddening to tackle. H What did you

92
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: ran it back?
