You started 7 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: the last couple of years with the pretty good team, 8 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks. Why the move to Buffalo? What what 9 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: prop did that move for you? Um? I'm sounds presented 10 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: with a with a great opportunity, said to play for 11 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: another great organization, great team, and uh, I just felt 12 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: like those great fit for me, my family, majority of 13 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: my family back East Coast, so I get to see them, 14 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: they get to watch me play. And I said after that, 15 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: I fit their scheme and what they want the players 16 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,959 Speaker 1: to do perfectly, and it fit what I wanted to do. So, 17 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it was just a great fit both sides. 18 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: I know it's very early. You guys have just done 19 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 1: for virtual stuff, but how has that gone for you? 20 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: How's the vibe been and how do you think the 21 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: team's handling it? Um? The teams handling a top notch 22 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: you know. Um, just everything the meetings and everything are 23 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: real structured. Uh. I mean, it's just it's a difficult 24 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: times but we have to we have to adjust, and 25 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: I think the Buffalo is doing a great job of 26 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: doing that. Um, you know, I would love to meet 27 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: the guys in person get around them, but uh, I 28 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: mean he said this will do. You know, you still 29 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: get to see how guys all these are and uh, 30 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: you see a bunch of young are hungry and just 31 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 1: know a lot about football. You know, I've been around 32 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: a lot of guys, and like I said, this was 33 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: definitely one of the most knowledgeable group of guys just 34 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: all around, just scrasping the defense and what everybody's supposed 35 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: to do. So uh, it's pretty cool. Live with Quentin Jefferson, 36 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: one of the new Buffalo Bills signed to a free 37 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 1: agent contract. You come to a new team, but there 38 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: are familiar faces for you, Quentin, including the Bills director 39 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: of player Personnel Dan Morgan, who played a little bit 40 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: in Seattle and spent a little bit of time out 41 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: there in the front office. What do you know about 42 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: Dan and what did he tell you about the Buffalo Bills. Um, 43 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: it's a great guy I know said for my time 44 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: and actually at my D line coach and him where roommates. 45 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: And like I said, it's just so I knew him 46 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: pretty well. And I said, he said nothing but great 47 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: things about Buffalo. You know, it's a great oation with 48 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: great coaching staff, culture, great facilities. I said, say again, 49 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: close to my family. And uh, like I said, they 50 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: let me. They said their defense allows me to really, 51 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: I feel like, reach my full potential. Whether whether I 52 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: just said, just pinning my ears back, you know, coming 53 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: off the ball, being destructive, being in the situation, said 54 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: to rush the passer and really get after and uh, 55 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: I said, I feel like it was a great, great 56 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: fit both sides. One of the things we've noticed about 57 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: the Buffalo defensive line is that they rotate guys through 58 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: a lot, and they've got a lot of guys that 59 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: can play different spots. Has that been a part of 60 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: their communication to you. They're going to ask you to 61 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 1: do some different things and use your athletic ability, maybe 62 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: to a more higher a higher degree than than you've 63 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: been asked to do before. Um, I mean yeah, definitely, 64 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: Like I said, if you watched my sap from Seattle. 65 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: They haven't everywhere, and uh that I was like one 66 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: of the things that they liked about me. And I 67 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: think I'll continue to do that where if I'm needed, 68 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: I'll be keep playing, you know. And like I said, 69 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: I love the fact that they have a good rotation. 70 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: Let's say that does nothing but keep guys fresh. And uh, 71 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: you said when you're fresh, you just keep rolling getting 72 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: after their team's out. So so I'm excited. And I guess, Quentin, 73 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: it's to say you can play inside or outside. Right, 74 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: you have that flexibility to be an end or a tackle. Right, 75 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: that's important as far as how you're used and how 76 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: much play time you can get. Oh yeah, no doubt. 77 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: Like I said, it helps them. Like it's like I said, 78 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: I learned that on as a as a young guy. 79 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: Any if you can play anything, that just gives you 80 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: more value. And I take proud on just trying to 81 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: learn a defense, to learn all the positions along the 82 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: D line because I just want to be able to play. 83 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: So if a guy's tired, need to blow shoes, I 84 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: there play wherever. They said, I just try to make 85 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: myself more and um, they said, really try to not 86 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: just play the positions, but actually play them and be 87 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: good at them. You know, like I said, I see 88 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: myself the lineman and pretty much every position. Everything's kind 89 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: of the same. So come up the ball, being final, 90 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: with your hands, getting guys off you. You're gonna be good. 91 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: Whether it's a one technique or five. We're talking with 92 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: Quentin Jefferson, Seattle Seahawks, a former Seattle Seahawk now a 93 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo bill is on the on the Buffalo Bill see 94 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: this last free agency signed a two year deal.

I mean, 100 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: I grew up as a Chiefs fan, so it's okay. 101 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: It's like it's like part of the uh you know, 102 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: especially young games.

Don't answer that, Quentin. 134 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 1: Let me just tell you the quick story. I was 135 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: in Seattle doing games for CBS, and there's a little 136 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: store down in downtown Seattle called Utila Kilt. Do you 137 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: ever hear, Quent? I ever heard you want to hear 138 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: thee Anyway, I have something once in a while I 139 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: wear this kilt. But I were just to play golfing, right, 140 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: So I've been getting a little bit of push back 141 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: my radio partner John Murphy about the fact that I 142 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: wear a kilt to play golf in once in a while. 143 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: You don't have a problem with kilts, do you. Oh? Man, 144 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: if that's that's your style, that's your sta. I don't 145 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: know if that personally fits my style. I don't know. 146 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: I might be too big for kilt now. I would yeah, 147 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: I would say. I was just say it takes a 148 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: little getting used to, there's no question about it. I 149 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: got to ask you, what, when's like the earliest possible 150 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: day you could get to Buffalo. I mean, usually you 151 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: would have been here already for a couple of weeks, 152 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: you'd kind of get acclimated, you'd be getting used to 153 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: the city. That's probably that's not the case now. So 154 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: when is like Conna be your timeline for getting into 155 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: town or are you just in the wait and see 156 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: move mode? Um, I kind of you know, just with 157 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: the landscape of things right now, it's kind of enough. 158 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: I mean I just had a plan. Me and my 159 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: wife were just talking about it because I actually recently 160 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: about to move. So once we get that figured out 161 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: and situated, so maybe like the end of June, maybe 162 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: beginning in July.
