I'm really excited John. I can't 18 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: sell you out and I am to reconnect with the Jaguars. 19 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: Um My fondest memories as an NFL player took place 20 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. The run that we went on in ninety 21 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: was magical. Playing with great guys during that time I 22 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: call his teammate Nate dron Mains, playing with Jimmy Smith 23 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: and Kenny McCardell, Mark Brunel, Tony Boselli, all of those guys. 24 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: I learned a lot during my time there, and even 25 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: um learning from Coach Coughland and the other coaches that 26 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: want the staff, including Dick Grant, very impactful, uh in 27 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: terms of the way that I viewed the game and 28 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: continue to view the game now that I'm in a 29 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: different role. I'm sure over the course of us working together, 30 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: we'll have a lot of time this fall to get 31 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: into all topics. But I do want to circle back 32 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: a little later in this podcast on some of your 33 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: nineteen nineties memories. People around here loves listening to that, 34 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: and it's been fun not letting those stories get lost. 35 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: But I'd be remiss if, with all that's going on 36 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: in the NFL, if I didn't ask you about the 37 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: COVID stuff right now the league. UM, I guess, just 38 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts? This is going to run in 39 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: three or four days. As a behind the your show, fans, 40 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: behind the curtains, what you say could be entirely different 41 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: three or four days. I get that things are changing 42 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: so fast, But what's your feeling right now in the 43 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: NFL season and just sort of how things are going 44 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: right now. Well, one, I'm excited because obviously, when you've 45 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: been around the game as long as we have been 46 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: around it, your body clock kind of tells you win. 47 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: Football season should be about the kick off, and so 48 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm excited that weird time. Even seeing the little b 49 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: road clips of guys walking into the facility, get into 50 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: COVID tests, the rookies reporting, knowing the veterans are a 51 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: few days away from reporting, you begin to get excited 52 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: about the prospect of football being played. Now. It's a 53 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: different time. The pandemic is robbed us of an off season, 54 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: a normal off season. We haven't had an opportunity to 55 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: really get excited about our team because we haven't seen 56 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: those guys and O t A s and mini camps, 57 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: and a lot of it is talked about being able 58 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: to just you know, trying to create stories and what 59 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: observations and those things. So I'm excited to see that. 60 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: I do believe is different because of the protocols that 61 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: are in place. I think the NFL has done a 62 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: really good job of putting protocols in place to try 63 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: and protect the players as best they can to opt 64 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: out um arrangement where you have you're seeing players around 65 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: the league opt out do the their own personal high 66 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: risk conditions or the concern of family members of those 67 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: in their inner circles, and so that is a little different. 68 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: But I do believe the NFL has had the lux 69 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: you're being able to look at what some of the 70 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: other leagues have done, hopefully UH learned from some of 71 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: the mistakes that have taken place to put our players 72 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: in the best position to make it through the season. Unscaped. 73 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: The full podcast available on Jaguars dot COM's podcast page 74 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: or the Official Jaguars podcast Network. We move along to 75 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: Jack's Drive Time. Ashton Solomon, John Osan and Brian Saxson 76 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: had a conversation about the reserve COVID nine team list 77 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: and the number of Jags play airs added so far. 78 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: And it's almost point now where you want this all 79 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: to happen right now during training camp, so it doesn't happen. 80 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: We've gone at the regular season prime. Yeah, but you 81 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: don't know that it won't happen again. I mean that 82 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: there are so many unknowns with this. I scoffed a 83 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 1: bit at people who wanted to point the finger and say, well, 84 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: the Jaguars have more than everyone else, so obviously they're 85 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: not doing something right. Um, give me a break. None 86 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: of us know what the standard is for this thing. 87 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: There were currents factor. None of us know where each 88 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: one of these players was or can contact trades all 89 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: the way back to where they've been and they've been 90 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: with for the last two months. I mean, it's just 91 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: this whole thing is going to be such a what's 92 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: happening today? The new normal is new because this August 93 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 1: is completely different than any previous August, at least in 94 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: my twenty seven years covering this league. It is completely different. 95 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: So you say, getting over with and move on. Do 96 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: you know what doesn't come back? Um, you said, well, 97 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to expect things. How do you know? 98 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: How do you know that we're not beyond it at 99 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: this point? None of us know. And I saw the 100 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: same things you did, Brian, People saying now the Jaguars 101 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: have had twelve what are they doing? This was all 102 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 1: about making sure that players didn't bring it inside the system, 103 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: and until it's inside the system, it's being kept out. 104 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: So I don't worry about it. If it happens next 105 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: week and all of a sudden, there's fifteen guys, then 106 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: that's the thing. My impression is from reading things around 107 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: the league, from talking to people around the league. The 108 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: the league overall is surprised that the numbers overall have 109 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: been so low. They think this is a positive. So 110 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,799 Speaker 1: we'll see. But as you said, Bryan, so many unknown 111 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: it's really hard to analyze if things are doing right 112 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: or wrong. I'm not sure there is a right or wrong. 113 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: It's basically hold your breath, and I'm not being not 114 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: trying to be cute there. It's hold your breath and uh, 115 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: wait for this thing to play out. Jaguar's drive time 116 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: archives available on at Jaguars on social media or the 117 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: team website Jaguars dot com. It's on the head coach 118 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: Doug Maron. He's speaking with the media over Microsoft teams 119 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: Monday and Thursday each week, and Thursday's meeting this week 120 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: was about thirty minutes of Maron digging deep on a 121 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: wide range of topics. One of those the small number 122 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: of opportunities to impress for players on the roster bubble. 123 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: It is and I have obviously because of my background, 124 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: I have a lot of empathy, you know, for them, 125 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: and you guys know my background and how I feel 126 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: when these things happen. UM, imagine how how awful I 127 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: feel when I know that I haven't gotten enough information 128 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: where I've got to make decisions that in the past, UM, 129 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: I've been able to complete a high level of information 130 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: to be able to make those decisions and feel good 131 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: about it. Even though the process of of releasing players 132 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: is terrible. UM. I've mentioned that many of times to 133 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: the players that are here. UM, you know what's going 134 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: on is it's so tough. It went back to before 135 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: I even Jean, before I even worked out whether we're 136 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: gonna be at ninety or eighty. UM, knowing that to 137 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: work we put in and knowing that, I think anything 138 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: in life, as long as you have an opportunity, UM, 139 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: it may not work out well, it may not even 140 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: be fair, but at least as an opportunity to at 141 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: least show something so immediately when it came out to 142 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: ninety eighty. I didn't even blak. I I was like, 143 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: I'm going to ninety. I just feel like it's just 144 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: an important thing for me and what I believe is 145 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: the right thing to do, and then I think it's 146 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: right for our team also, obviously. So I've talked to 147 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: a lot of these players about these difficult decisions and 148 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: how hard it's gonna be. And you know, we may 149 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: make these decisions and we may be wrong, you know, 150 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: but if it's important for you to continue your career, 151 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: you keep keep training. This year is so different, you 152 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: know than any year in the past. I really feel 153 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: I really don't like that position that that I'm in personally. Now. 154 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about the league and I'm not talking 155 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: about rules, and I'm not talking about the scouts, the 156 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: coaches or anyone like that. I'm talking about me personally. 157 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: You know, it is a UM, it's it's not a 158 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: good feeling, you know what I'm saying. It's not it's uh, 159 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: it's it's stinks and there's nothing I can do to 160 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: change that. I've tried to create these schedules where we 161 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: can get the most out of our evaluation, you know, 162 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: from the players. Um. But at the end of the day, 163 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: I and I said this right away, I go out 164 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: of the history of of of of this league. This 165 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: is by far the toughest time too for someone like 166 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: you said, you know, make this football team, because the 167 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: opportunities are going to be extremely limited. And it's a 168 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: shame because we're gonna miss out on the greatest stories. 169 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: In my mind, the greatest stories to me is a 170 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: guy that's been working and all of a sudden comes 171 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: out for the team try out that's open to anyone. 172 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: He tries out, he's got something he you know, the 173 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: odds are stacked against him, and all of a sudden 174 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: he makes it. And not only does he make it, 175 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: he winds up thriving. And and we've seen this throughout 176 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: the history. And we're gonna, whether we like it or not, 177 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 1: or whether we think we're experts and evaluating people, we're 178 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: gonna lose a little bit of that. And and and 179 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe that's deep. Maybe um uh, you know, 180 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: maybe I'm looking too far into it, you know, but 181 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: I think that's that's sad.

Time to get in the trenches with 196 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: Jaguars center Brandon Lender. He met with the media on 197 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: a video conference Wednesday, and there's plenty of social distancing 198 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: going on these days, as we all know, but at 199 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: some point the offensive linemen will get on the field 200 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: and block the player across from them. It's about as 201 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: opposite of the world we're living in as you can get. 202 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: I asked him about any apprehension with that, and what 203 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: do you wear? The optional shield and his face mask. 204 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: This year, we've been socially distancing ourselves. I've been taking 205 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: this seriously. Um, I've been talking to the equipment guys 206 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: about that shield. I guess that goes above right here. 207 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: But I mean, as hot as it's been, I don't 208 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: know that's gonna be tough. But I mean, because I 209 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: mean in the trenches, I mean you're just right here 210 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: with another guy. I mean obviously there's your exhaling or spit. 211 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of crazy, but I don't know, 212 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: we'll see. I'm gonna take a look at it, um, 213 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: but I don't know. It might be too hot in 214 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: there to wear it. I mean, you're taking a risk, 215 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: and you hope that all the protocols in place are 216 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: gonna are gonna eliminate or or at least try and 217 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: eliminate some of the you know, having this COVID slipped 218 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: through this building. I mean, they've been doing a good 219 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: job so far. But um, I'm gonna take a look 220 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: at it and we'll see. But I don't know, because 221 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: I've never worn a visor or anything like that, and 222 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: I've heard things about the visor being hot in there, 223 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: and so we'll see. You really just have to go 224 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: try it, right, Yeah, Yeah, you're gonna try it. Yeah, 225 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna put it on for one practice and 226 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: to see how it feels, see how it looks, and 227 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: then go from there. Good to hear from Linda this week, 228 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: and it's hard to leave. He's now entering his seventh 229 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: NFL season, the veteran of that offensive line group. Now 230 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: to the guy who was receiving the snaps from Linda. 231 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: Back on Tuesday, we had our first public visit with 232 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 1: Jaguars quarterback Gardner means you the second. As you might imagine, 233 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 1: he covered plenty, including his short stay on the reserve 234 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 1: COVID night team list that made him miss the first 235 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: day of work. Nah as brutal dude, Like yesterday it 236 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: has been like the first day of school, you know, 237 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 1: like had my outfit picked out and everything. How to 238 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: stay at home. That sucks, missed out playing with all 239 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: my friends. But yeah, you know, did not contract the virus. 240 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 1: It took one luck at me ran the other way. 241 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: It's probably in its best interests. So um, here we are. 242 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: We're back on Tuesday. Right to roll. It's had a 243 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: good place in football, meant you. Later discussed his offseason emphasis. 244 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: Outside of getting stronger and staying in shape, I think 245 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: one of the big emphasis um this offseason's obviously been 246 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 1: learning the offense remotely. Uh, you know, you haven't been 247 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: in the eating room every day to be able to 248 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: ask the questions. UM, So it's been kind of figuring 249 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: it out, you know, talking to God with us guys 250 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: on the team that I've been in the system before. Um, 251 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: you know, talking to the coach Griden, coach mcade as 252 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: much as I can. Just really trying to show up 253 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: to camp ready to run this offense and you know, 254 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: help everybody ask along. Later in the week, Maron was 255 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: asked about the quirkiness of his quarterback some of the 256 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: social media and outside the building events of the off season, 257 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: but Maroon said he only sees one side of Menshew. 258 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: I get home last night and someone mentioned to me that, hey, 259 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: do you see the thing about you know, uh Gardner. 260 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: You know, a dog barked and he barked it back. 261 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 1: I'm like and like, you know, and I'm looking at 262 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: and the see I don't know so many of the 263 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: things that go on on the outside, So it's hard 264 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 1: for me, Like when people like ask me about him 265 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: or asked me about questions like that. That's the part 266 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: I don't see. Does that makes sense? In other words, 267 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: I don't see that part and that in that in 268 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: that in that player. Uh. Not to say that I 269 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: can't sit see him not doing those things, you know 270 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: what I mean, Because there's so many people that tell me, 271 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: you know, all those things about you know, social media, 272 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: RVs and all that stuff. I see the guy that 273 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: comes in with with with a mission and a focus 274 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: every single day, you know, so uh, you know when 275 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: he's here or around myself. And not to say that 276 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: we might not laugh about something or joke. We do, 277 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: but I don't see that that other side, Uh that 278 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: people will be say the quirkiness to think of that 279 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: nature he's uh maybe I bring that out in people. 280 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, But I'm just saying I see a 281 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: guy that's focused and you know, it's ready to go. 282 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: And every time he's here and he's working, he's on 283 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: a mission and he's really working with his teammates. So 284 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 1: I I you know, I I say that, you know 285 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: he's someone that um, you know, I think has a 286 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: really good personality, you know what I'm saying, And and 287 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: and and can really you know, laugh at himself and 288 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: do those things which I think is important in life. 289 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: I think that he's someone that can communicate with everyone 290 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: on his on his team no matter you know, where 291 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: you are, whether you're you know, the guy that stays 292 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: in the corner, whether you're out there. Um, and I 293 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: think that's great. So you know, those things are positive. 294 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: But make no mistake about it. Um, you know when 295 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: he's when he crosses that line and he's on the field, 296 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: or he's in the classroom, or when he's by himself, UM, 297 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: you know, he's working extremely hard. That's what I see 298 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: from the offensive leader to a cornerstone of the Jaguars defense. 299 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl defensive ended linebacker Josh Allen. Allen was asked 300 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: about his goals for the year and what he worked 301 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: on technically in the off season to be the best 302 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: defensive player in the country, I mean in the league. Uh, 303 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: that's you know, high standards, had a high standard last 304 00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: year and I kind of achieved that goal. But now 305 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: you know, I set the bar really high for myself 306 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: and I'm looking to stay there and stay at the top. 307 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna push myself as much as I could 308 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: push each year. And this year is I'm not holding 309 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: anything back. Man, I'm coming in. It's as best as 310 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: I can, the best version of me. Uh. You know, 311 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: I feel like coming into practice what I did so far, Man, 312 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: I feel like the game is grown. I feel like 313 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 1: I'm getting un comfortable, but it's still it's still a 314 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: lot I gotta learn. And but uh, I got high 315 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: stands this year. And and I just know I'm shooting 316 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: for the top. I feel like, you know, yeah, I 317 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: worked on pass rush, but I worked on my whole game. Uh. 318 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: You know it was it's so big to get caught 319 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: up in the sacks. You know, this is just talking 320 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: around people in the NFL. Uh It's so big to 321 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: get caught up in the sacks if you're considered a 322 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: pass rusher. Uh. And I'm not trying to be considered 323 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: just a pass rush I'm trying to be considered a 324 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: great defensive player. Um So I'm my main focus was stopping. 325 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: My main focus is gonna stop the run, tackle for losses, 326 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, plays that destruct the whole offense. Uh So 327 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: That's really what I've been working on. So I've been 328 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: working on just quick get off my three point coming out, 329 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: my three point stands is supposed to be. But as 330 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,679 Speaker 1: I can, uh, you know, things like that. But I 331 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: worked a lot of pass rush. But like I said, 332 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: I worked on you know, trying to be able to 333 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: stop the run and get type of losses and be 334 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: quick on my first step. For his head coach, Allan's 335 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: preparation and follow through will be a big part of 336 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 1: his success. I think it starts early on. So like 337 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 1: for me, there I get started. Uh, it didn't start 338 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: when he reported here. You know, it pretty started with 339 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: conversations in the off season. You know, how can I 340 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: get on the field more, How can I be a 341 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: better use for the team? I'll do anything it takes, um, 342 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: you know, and then talking about you know kind of 343 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, what he's doing in his personal life, family why, 344 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 1: you know, the maturity them and looking at what he 345 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 1: can do better. So so immediately when the season was over, 346 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: you know, I think and myself, this guy gets it. 347 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,239 Speaker 1: You know, um, you know this guy is is are 348 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: all of a sudden starting to put together a plan 349 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: for himself of of how he what he wants to 350 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 1: do in the offseason, what he wants to do when 351 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: he comes back, and is envisioning himself being a successful 352 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: on the field. That you need that first before you 353 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: need anything, I think. Uh, the next thing you look 354 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: at is when you do get a visual, you know, 355 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: how how's he shown up? You know, you could say 356 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: all that stuff and talk about that stuff, but you 357 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 1: can show up and not be in shape, not be ready, 358 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: not be focused. That's the exact opposite with Josh. So, 359 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, all the indications are he's he's 360 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 1: exactly where he should be. And that's one of the 361 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: things that you get excited about, you know, of seeing Hey, 362 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: what what you know? When he gets on the field, Uh, 363 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: it looks like he's done a heck of a job 364 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,959 Speaker 1: between when the season was over to now and and 365 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: he looks like someone that is not satisfied, that's on 366 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 1: a MISSI and that has a lot of goals, that 367 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: has team goals. You know. That's the other important thing too, 368 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: of you know, how do you you know is it 369 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,719 Speaker 1: just about me? Me and me? Or hey, what can 370 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: I do for the team? How can I be a 371 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: better leader? How can I you know, these are the 372 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: conversations I've had with him that that when you're a coach, 373 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: those are the conversations that you know, when they're done, 374 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 1: you're like, gosh, that's awesome. You know, that's great. So 375 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: you know that that's where Josh has been and I 376 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: you know, I've I've run into him in town. You know, 377 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: we we we ran into him out at the beach. Um, 378 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: not at physically the beach, but at the club, and um, 379 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: you know, he's he's you know, getting his body worked on, 380 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: making sure that you know, hey, I'm ready to go 381 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 1: and feel like I mean, you know, so I was 382 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 1: able to talk to him. I'm like, hey, what are 383 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: you doing because normally for me, I'm thinking, well, shoot, um, 384 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 1: first year player and you've had you've gone through all 385 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: this stuff the first year.

I think he's he's managed and balanced all 388 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: that where he feels that he's in a really good 389 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: position and and that helps our football team.
