1
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: What's going on, you know, doing good and this stage

2
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,479
Speaker 1: of your career, do you have a prempert on whether

3
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: or not to play in preseason? Doesn't matter, do you

4
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,239
Speaker 1: do you like to get a little action before it starts. Um,

5
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter to me. I feel like, you know,

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 1: worrying right now. Camp. Uh, you know I'm ready to

7
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: play football. Um, but you know, whatever coaches asked for me,

8
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna go out there and do set

9
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: for the entire offense. None of y'all really have actually

10
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: together to play, Um, I don't know so much is

11
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 1: a setback, um, because I mean, yeah, we haven't had

12
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 1: a chance to play all together in a while, but

13
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: we do have a lot of veteran pieces and a

14
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: lot of guys who've played a lot of football. So

15
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 1: I mean, um, you know, it does suck that we're

16
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: not able to able to practice altogether right now, but

17
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: I think we'll pick up at a good point when

18
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: he gets back working back. Oh, definitely, definitely exciting to

19
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: see him back out there throwing a practice. Uh kind

20
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: of easing themselves way and easing himself back in the drills.

21
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: A couple of years ago when workers, um, I mean

22
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: probably just being out there just uh play speed and

23
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 1: just kind of because I mean at the beginning to camp,

24
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 1: I mean, everyone kind of has to get there their

25
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 1: feet under him, man, and maybe it takes a couple

26
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,759
Speaker 1: of days to kind of feel comfortable. Um. So just

27
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: that she like, um see whatever, people get to see

28
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: a different side, you sing person, having all those stuff

29
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: kind of feedback beginning. Uh. I mean, yeah, people have

30
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: been hitting me, but uh, I actually haven't watched watched

31
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: it yet, so um, I mean I'm just going through camp,

32
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: like I said, a camp, you know what I mean,

33
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: just being myself. Three It wasn't all me though, it

34
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: wasn't all me. I was sharing you're paying this when

35
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: you're watching. I just when I'm watching be choking on seashells.

36
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: When when you look at the offense and all the

37
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 1: talent you'all have, even if you're not played together, what

38
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 1: where do you think this offense can be week one? Um?

39
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 1: Our first meeting of the year, coach coach Kelly said, uh,

40
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: you know, our number one goal this year is to

41
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: be the number of offense. So I mean we're just

42
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,799
Speaker 1: gonna you said, what do I see us being a

43
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: week one? Um? I mean, I don't know right now,

44
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 1: but uh, I mean hopefully we're looking pretty good right. Yeah.

45
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: We don't want to be our best week one, but

46
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,679
Speaker 1: you know, we want to put some good stuff out there.

47
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: And I guess that kind of daunt is not heavy

48
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: time together and going against this this type of defense

49
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: that's pretty damn bial we saw the last time we

50
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: saw the no you know they shout that camp. Um.

51
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean they're a good defense. We

52
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: got good guys too, So I mean I like my

53
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: guys taking talks, questions after the whole team. You know,

54
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: urgency is always there for you guys, but when you

55
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: take age, experience all that kind of stuff gowing together,

56
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: I didn't you see the window for this team? Is

57
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: it now? Um? I'm always worried about right now. I'm

58
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: always worried about, you know, the next game this year.

59
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't even really start thinking that way. So,

60
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, right now, this is your sixth camp.

61
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: I mean I know you you know you were gone

62
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: for one of those. But is there a point in

63
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: the camp where you start to turn your focus toward

64
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: the regular season and worry, not worried less about it,

65
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: but just kind of realize that you're getting closer to

66
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: the season than you were when you reported. You said,

67
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: is there a part of camp at that point maybe

68
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: your focus for your attitude about we're getting ready for Um? No,

69
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: I mean I think just in camp you're doing everything

70
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: you can, you know, make sure about week one that

71
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: you're as prepared as you can be. So I mean

72
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: I think you gotta, um go through camp and it's

73
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: entirely in you know, just worry about you know, getting

74
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: better every day, getting better every day as a team. Uh.

75
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 1: And I mean, yeah, you gotta be ready for week one,

76
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: but we gotta finish camp, first champion game. Look back,

77
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 1: how much you appreciated, how much you missed him even

78
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: now do Um? I mean he's a leader of our team.

79
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: He's a leader of our offense. Uh, you know, it

80
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: gets us all lined up. I mean he calls it shots.

81
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: So I mean definitely miss him out there. Um, we

82
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: gotta do what we can while he's not there, just

83
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: to keep things going. But he'll be exciting to get

84
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: him back of Coach McCarthy talked about getting back here

85
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: and into some hot weather to get used to Tampa.

86
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: You're an indoor practice you have five minutes outside today

87
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: and it was kind of cool just to that again. Um,

88
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: it does. Actually, it is a lot tough to uh

89
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: not tough to just too, but it takes you know,

90
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: a couple of days to to get used to. Um.

91
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: I mean even our first day back here, our first well,

92
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 1: our first two days back here. We're inside, it's still

93
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: a lot more human than it was out an ox Star.

94
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 1: So it's still a lot different. Uh, but I can't

95
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 1: wait for it to get a little warmer so he

96
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: can get out there and the heat. Um, he's made

97
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: a really big step. You know, he's gotten a lot better,

98
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: uh in between year one and two, and uh, he's

99
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 1: getting more comfortable. Um, a lot more knowledge about the offense,

100
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: a lot more knowledge about the scheme, and uh, he

101
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: just he's able to when he goes out to the

102
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: just relax, not worried about what it's. The signment is

103
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: he's he's able to go out there and relax and

104
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: be the player. Is a big part of that when

105
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: you look at it, just a running back at real

106
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: streak feeling. Uh yeah, I mean I like our depth

107
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: and running back. You know, we have a lot of

108
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: guys who can go out there and play and uh,

109
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: you know that's just at every position. You know, we

110
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: don't want any drop off, you know when when the

111
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: two of the threes come in. Since on our young

112
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 1: not a lot of experience of the position and roles

113
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: and full back important, get some practice talk together and

114
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 1: what is the guard back in preseason? Um needed to

115
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: show you there about trust from um? I mean, I

116
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: think the biggest thing for Nick the focus on is

117
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: making sure it gets on a special team. It's gonna

118
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: be hard to get a jersey on the fifty three,

119
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: you know without having some major, major special team roles.

120
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 1: So you know, every day I'll just you know, in

121
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: his ear and letting them know that he needs to, yeah,

122
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: be locked in on his full back assignments, but more

123
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: importantly be ready to go out there contribute on special teams.

124
00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: Yea from alright, harsh with one personnel, but what do

125
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: you you're talking about that more foot style football, the

126
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 1: full back in front of him. I mean, I like

127
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: it all, you know. I like getting eleven, uh, spreading

128
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: the mount around. I don't care for twenty one to

129
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 1: twenty two and pounded. Uh. Just I like the ball

130
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: in my hands. UM, I mean he talks a little trash,

131
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: but uh, I mean he's just he's he's a leader.

132
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: He gets everyone lined up. I don't know else to

133
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: put it. You mentioned before because no Kim for you

134
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: two years ago and last year was just weird. You've

135
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 1: that kind of normal offseason and you're getting closer to

136
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: the end of the normal. M I feel physically as

137
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: good as you have it since the last time it

138
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: was kind of normal. Yeah, I feel really good. Uh,

139
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: I feel healthy. I don't fucking a good shape. I

140
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: like with my speed and my quickness is uh like

141
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: how comfortable I am in the offense? So I mean

142
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: I think I'm ready to go. I never rescue. How

143
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: much you want to balance Bill have like keeping out

144
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: at the same because you'll know that's all possible, that's

145
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: still adding new Say it again, I'm sorry you an

146
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: offensive coordinators, so many offensive guys returning and things are

147
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: so set. What's the perfect balance of making sure you're

148
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: changing things that but also like taking advantage of that familiarity. Um,

149
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we gotta have our base plays, we gotta

150
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: have our go to plays, and uh you know, we

151
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: gotta have you know, change ups off of that. Thank

152
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 1: you thank you,
