1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: Appreciate it. Uh, I mean yeah, I mean it's tough

2
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: in the moment, Like, you know, what goes in my

3
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: mind is obviously try to get him out of bounds

4
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: and have our defense get good field position, you know,

5
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: on on a turnover. You know, obviously you don't want

6
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 1: to turn the ball over, but I don't want them

7
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: returning it. So I feel like I had leverage to

8
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: you know, get him out of bounds, and that's just

9
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: what I tried to do. So yeah, obviously I don't

10
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 1: want to be like tackling in the preseason, but you know,

11
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: just it happened so quick and I was just trying

12
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: to get him out of bounds. Yeah, yeah, I did.

13
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: I mean it happened so fast, man. You know, the

14
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: balls turned over, they're all hype. I'm on their sideline

15
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: on the ground, and uh, you know, that's just where

16
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: I was at in the moment. And I don't know

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: if he could have done anything different or what, but

18
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: you know, it's football, man, It gets chaotic, so part

19
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, Yeah, I felt good to get out

20
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: there with the guys and just move the ball. You know,

21
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: last week obviously wanted to move it a little bit

22
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: more efficiently and stuff. So to get out there and

23
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,279
Speaker 1: get some first downs and score and put the points

24
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: up on the board felt good. So we were all

25
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: in a rhythm. Obviously, throw down, get man coverage on

26
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: on a on a slant, get the ball up in

27
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: the air like it just it sucks. But before that,

28
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: felt like we were in a pretty good rhythm. Yeah, obviously,

29
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: Like you know, when you're starting out a game, you

30
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: sort of have your openers, and you have an idea

31
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: of like what plays you want to run, and you

32
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 1: know who you want to try to get the ball

33
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: to if it's the right look. And you know, sure

34
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: enough we got we got some good looks and good

35
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: opportunities to get the balls in Deebo's hands and and

36
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: uh George's hands. So I feel like we did a

37
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: good job of you know, sort of connecting and and

38
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: just feeling that game atmosphere again, you know, for us

39
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: as as starters. So yeah, man, he's he's come in

40
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: obviously rookie year, chip on the shoulder, trying to make

41
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: the team, undrafted guy. And you know, he and I had,

42
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 1: you know, studied every day together and did our little

43
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,959
Speaker 1: walk throughs together. So to see him, you know, sort

44
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 1: of come on the scene and and have success obviously

45
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: through special teams the first couple of years, and and

46
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: some crucial runs as well, and then this offseason you know,

47
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: sort of sort of grow up and and just mature,

48
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 1: you know as a as an NFL running back has

49
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: been pretty sweet to see. So obviously, I think his

50
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: knowledge with the playbook and understanding where he needs to

51
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: be as a running back, with the gaps that he's hitting,

52
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: and and obviously being able to be there for checkdown

53
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: in the in the past game. You know, he's he's

54
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: got great hands and and just overall, I just feel

55
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: like he's become more of a professional, you know, as

56
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: playing in the NFL, going to his third year. So

57
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: I'm really excited for him. A year ago we were

58
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: talking about that connection. He had an opportunity at all

59
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: this off season in front. Uh, I have not, no,

60
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: you know, it's just sort of how it had how

61
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: it's gone. Every time I've thrown since being here in

62
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 1: California with the team, it's been you know, the organized

63
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: team activities and and obviously he hasn't participated in in

64
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: the in those things, so we just haven't had a

65
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: chance to throw so is there any talent in your

66
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: mind that he joins the team? Uh I, I think

67
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: I'd be confident in in us being able to pick

68
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: up where we left off, you know, thrown to him

69
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: for two years and and obviously going on three understanding

70
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: our plays, our concepts, where he needs to be, where

71
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: the receiver needs to be. I'd be pretty confident in

72
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: him coming back and and us being on the same page.

73
00:03:54,320 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, him, Yeah, yeah, I mean, obviously it's a

74
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 1: third preseason game, and it's like, man, we're so close

75
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: to you know, our opening day and and being ready

76
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: for the regular season. And so when you got a

77
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: guy like that, you know that obviously we get in

78
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: the off season you're excited about and then you see him,

79
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: you know, go down. You know for all of us

80
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: who were just like come on, man, like like dang it.

81
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: But obviously he came back. You know, the the word

82
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: is good. You know, just around that, you know he's

83
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: feeling better, so you know, hopefully he's good to go.

84
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: But you know, like I said, third preseason game and

85
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: seeing one of our starters go down like that, it's

86
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: always scary. So you all a little bit, But uh,

87
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: I haven't like gone all in. I've just you know,

88
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: sort of skimmed over some games and seen what they've

89
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: done like last year, but I haven't really gone falling

90
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: on it yet. Yeah, I mean it's I think it's

91
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 1: on now, you know, just in terms of obviously trying

92
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: to see where we're at as an offense myself, where

93
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: I can continue to get better, but also know that

94
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: you know, this is the team that we're gonna be

95
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 1: playing week one, so uh now we have all this

96
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: time to you know, sort of get healthy for one

97
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: and then two, you know, attack just the scheme of

98
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 1: things with how we expect the game to go and

99
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: what we're gonna try to do. So we got a

100
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: couple of weeks to go and excited for it this one. Yeah,

101
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, just driving into the stadium and

102
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: then yeah, seeing the locker room and our lockers are

103
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: for this game, at least they were in the different

104
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 1: different spots, and then you know, just being on the sideline.

105
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: It seems like yesterday we were just playing that game.

106
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: So you know, obviously it sucks thinking about it and

107
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: and how we just weren't able to finish. But it's

108
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four and we're excited for the season, so

109
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 1: we're gonna have another opportunity at it, So thanks guys.

110
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 1: M
