1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 1: Did you like getting back to cornerback the last couple

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: of weeks went on time? Yeah, it was pretty fun.

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,640
Speaker 1: Uh kind of went back to some of the roots

4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 1: established in college. Uh so yeah, I mean I enjoyed it.

5
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: Do you know what position you're gonna go into the

6
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 1: off season and come back as I uh, you know,

7
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 1: after talking you know the coaches. Uh. Kind of that

8
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: versatility role for me is kind of what will happen

9
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: going forward as well, you know, kind of being able

10
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: to play a lot of positions and then and we'll

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: see off season goals and we keep working, um, trying

12
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: to really establish myself in a role, but right now

13
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: my role is the guy who can get it anywhere

14
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: for us. Do you like that? Yeah? I do. I

15
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,239
Speaker 1: think that's kind of like what I've always done, you know,

16
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: before college, you know, high school ball and growing up.

17
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: So it's kind of like a fun aspect of playing

18
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: the game, Julian and after a see reason where you know,

19
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: some games you're playing seventy five snaps, some games you're

20
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: playing fifteen. When you go, guys go into the most

21
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: important game of the year at the end, and they

22
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: count on you and they treat you as one of

23
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: their most reliable players and you play the way you did.

24
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: You know, do you feel it? Does that send you

25
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: into the off season with a positive feeling coming off

26
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: a season where kind of every week was different. It does? Uh.

27
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: And you know they told us they one that that's

28
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: kind of how things might operate. One week you might

29
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: not play at all, one week you might play every snap.

30
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 1: I thought it was kind of a a joke, you know. Okay,

31
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: I understand like, yeah, you gotta be ready, you gotta

32
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: be flexible and all that stuff. But yeah, for me,

33
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: it was pretty real. Uh. And it requires some patients

34
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: at times, but I knew there's always a plan. Um,

35
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: so I mean that can be made, It motivated, can

36
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: be going. I was always really on the game plan

37
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: and uh kind of really ready to go. And so yeah,

38
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: you know, ending whatever, a lot of snaps played, I

39
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: played a lot of game Um, you know it send

40
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: to me the offseason, you know, ready to keep working

41
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: and keep growing at that jug machine. Yet, man, I

42
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: need like a discount code or something. Those things are expensive. Yeah,

43
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: that's that's definitely just making plays this offseason. That's my

44
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: main focus. Thanks man, sort Hey Julian, are you doing

45
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: Paul Good Good Julian A couple of things. First of all,

46
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: did you ever lose any confidence in any you know,

47
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: the way your rookie year went with the previous regime,

48
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: you kind of like, you know, you weren't playing at

49
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: the end. Did you kind of look at it and say,

50
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know if that was them, if

51
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: it was me? You know, what do you what would

52
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: you take out of your rookie year? Did do you

53
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: look like anything there rookie here? You know, I thought

54
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: I had a lot of time to kind of see

55
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: how the game was played, uh defensively, uh, and kind

56
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: of just really mentally grow my game. Uh the play

57
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: spezies teams for most of the year last year, um,

58
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: and I finally stepped into my role you know this year, Uh,

59
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: you know, I started slower, and you know, I I

60
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: realized that I wanted to be making more plays and

61
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: kind of um being out there for us. And I

62
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: guess this the speed of the off season, the preseason games,

63
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: hopping right into it. It did affect me in in

64
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 1: certain ways. And so after I got knocked off, some

65
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: of the rusts got into it. I think I was

66
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: playing great ball for us and you know, go for

67
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: I can't let that happen again. That's kind of a

68
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: rookie thing. It's uh, growing pains, kind of learning the

69
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: game more. Uh. I'm definitely this offseason staying ready no

70
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: matter what day it is. Uh. And so that's my plan.

71
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: And when you look at this group back there, you know,

72
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: it looks like it will largely return intact. Um. You know,

73
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: you have safeties that are you know, we don't know

74
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 1: where that anyone's gonna play. They were also versatile, uh,

75
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: you know McKinney and that Bradberry. When you look at

76
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: this group, how how much can this secondary group make

77
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: a stride next year? Can it be one of the

78
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: best in the leads? Do you think? Yeah? I mean

79
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: we have some very talented pieces. Uh. And it it

80
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: is nothing but excite us for you know, going forward,

81
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: because we have a lot of players who you know,

82
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: have that just base of being ball players, um, and

83
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: guys were versa the guys who can play different types

84
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: of schemes um. And so going forward, I know we're

85
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: gonna use that to the best of our ability. We're

86
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: gonna max out everything we got on the back end

87
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 1: because when you look at it, yeah, we have kind

88
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: of a young core as you could say. You know, Logan, Ryan,

89
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: James Barber are experienced players. Um, so we're young, but

90
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,679
Speaker 1: I mean we're very talented. Uh, and so we feel

91
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: that this guy is really a limit for us. Um

92
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: and I think you know it's perfect savior McKinney finishing

93
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: the game, uh, fishing I guess the season for us.

94
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: You know, that just shows kind of where we're you know,

95
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: our trajectory is really you mentioned that like Mr. Versatility

96
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: role that do everything kind of guy you're gonna be in.

97
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,799
Speaker 1: Do you just kind of go to Logan and say

98
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: that's what you've been doing kind of your whole career?

99
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: What's your blueprint? Like how does he help you that

100
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: you're a younger version of him? I guess yeah. And

101
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: you know, Lolan Ryan was having him on the team

102
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: really helps me, you know, football wise and just off

103
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: the field wise. He's a true pro and all he

104
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: does and you know, it's easy to look at him

105
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: and he's like, all right, this is kind of what

106
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 1: I want to be, Like this is a type of

107
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: player and a person that I'm striving to get towards.

108
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: The type of career I'm trying to have UM and

109
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 1: so he was a guy you know, I can always

110
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: ask any question about UM, whether it's technical or not.

111
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: I mean, he always had an answer for me. And

112
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: so he mean him and Nate Ebner have really just

113
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: helped me grow. And you know that's Uh, those guys,

114
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 1: I mean, their careers is something you only dream of.

115
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: And so hopefully I can learn from them, you know,

116
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: going forward and be careful because we're talking about McKinney next.

117
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: What did you lose to McKinney on the Notre Dame

118
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 1: Alabama game? Uh? Um? And did I did the same

119
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: freaking gear? But that I did did with Texa Lawrence? Uh?

120
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 1: The little poles with him in the tight shirt Irish shirt.

121
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: Um and so x uh he has some stuff for

122
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: me too. I might have got off the building before

123
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: I had to do it. So we'll see how how

124
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: I go. Let's hope I can avoid him until uh

125
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: O t a s um. But yeah, so just just

126
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: a little a little gear. But you want to Jim

127
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: threw up award finalists and all that you want outside

128
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 1: the guy in order. Damn well, a little frustrated took

129
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: this long to get a serious look on the outside

130
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: these last few games at the end of year. Uh.

131
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: You know, as soon as I got into the league,

132
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: they told me I was gonna play safety, um, And

133
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: so I mean corner I knews him and I always

134
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: kind of had in my back pocket. Um. And you know,

135
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: Jerome Henderson says told me earlier in the season like

136
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 1: he feels comfortable going to me if need be, and

137
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,799
Speaker 1: so it was all there was a look they wanted.

138
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: And so I mean this past game, I really just

139
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: tried to kind of elevate and uh really really was

140
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: mentally focused and we're trying to work my craft the

141
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: entire week to prepare and kind of do what I

142
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: had to do against the Cowboys. I got a little

143
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: little shot earlier in a few weeks ago against the Browns.

144
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: I was kind of a last minute thing obviously with

145
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 1: everything going on with COVID and uh jb um. And

146
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: so this week I really felt good going into the week.

147
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: And so I think they know that now, Um, they

148
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: know has something to grow off of, something to have

149
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: really for you, And I know I'll be rapping a

150
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: little bit everywhere going forward. Still, do you think you

151
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: did enough Julian to show the staff? Saying Hey, I'm

152
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: your guy opposite of James next year. I think I

153
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: showed him some great stuff. Um. You know, however they

154
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: wanted to see it, I'm fine with it. Um, But

155
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: they know I'm a ballplayer. UM. That's kind of always

156
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 1: what I've tried to establish myself as the guy who

157
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: can get it and then I know where it is. Um.

158
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: And so yeah, I feel like I've done something. I did.

159
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: I did what I had to do this game in

160
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: terms of the the you know, the boundary corner stuff.

161
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I assume that they told you that, you know,

162
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: when you were a rookie that you were gonna have

163
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: to move to safety based on speed, numbers or combine

164
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: or whatever. But now that you've gotten a chance to

165
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: go up against some of the better receivers in the league,

166
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: I mean, especially in the Dallas game, what did you

167
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: use to your advantage? Was it the craft? Was it

168
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: the technique? Did you realize and kind of show that

169
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: you can use technique to kind of maybe compensate for

170
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: some of the other things that people say you don't

171
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: have to play on the outside. Yeah, I mean, uh yeah,

172
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 1: So you know, I'll tell you right now, I'm not

173
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: if you're telling me to run you know straight, I'm

174
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: not gonna run that great of a time. You're not

175
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: gonna be that fast. And that's kind of like what

176
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: my communite numbers were, um, actually four or five minutes fast.

177
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: Let me let me said. I'm saying that's fast. It's

178
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: faster than me. So yeah, that's bad. That's what we're

179
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 1: going for. Uh. But you know, I think my game

180
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: speed is something that has always been just a highlight

181
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: of my game. UM. And and so I was able

182
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 1: to do what I had to do against you know,

183
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: especially Dallas receivers UM. And then what I pride myself on,

184
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: um since my college day, since growing up, since coming

185
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: out of Chicago, is kind of my physicality of playing football. UM.

186
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,719
Speaker 1: You know, corner isn't usually seen as a position that

187
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: can tackle, can hit, and so I just try to

188
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: make sure, all right, this game, I'm gonna I'm gonna tackle.

189
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: I'm going into help seal the edge for us, and

190
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: I had some opportunities to and I think I did that.

191
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: UM And so yeah, I think the physicality and this intuition,

192
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 1: you know, Brad Berry really helped me this week um

193
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: or last week preparing for Dallas and schemes everybody had.

194
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: We had some great you know, opportunities we thought, um

195
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: and JB is just his mind is is really sharp

196
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 1: when it comes to opportunities of what he sees. And

197
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: so he was in my ear the entire week helping me,

198
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: and so I was able to play fast, you know,

199
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: play without thinking, play with anticipation. Um, and I think

200
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: that's how we really limited those receivers. Well, thanks man,

201
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,959
Speaker 1: have a great off season. Thank you appreciate it. The
