1 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome into camping Out with Zak Selvy. This 2 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: is where you get the most recent and up to 3 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: date conversations about your commander's team as they go through 4 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:26,479 Speaker 1: training camp. I don't know a by y'all, and I 5 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: know I don't know if the heat can go through 6 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: the screen, but my goodness, it is so sweltering here. 7 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: We're still having fun. We're still here watching commanders go 8 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: through practice of the next month. And I got the 9 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,160 Speaker 1: chance to talk to two of our beat reporters today, 10 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: one John come from ESPN and Ethan Condo from NBC 11 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: Sports Washington. John come from ESPN. John, I mean, we've 12 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: been waiting forever for training camps, finally here. What are 13 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: some of the bigger things you're looking forward to seeing 14 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 1: in the first day? Well, how does Carson Wentz work 15 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: with the receivers? And now, obviously this is going to 16 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: be a season long storyline, but you want to see 17 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: what is starting to have form right now. How does 18 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: he work with Terry McLaurin, How does he work with 19 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: Johan Dotson and that that whole group, Because he's obviously 20 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: a huge key to the season, so his development, his 21 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: progression in this offense will be key because there is 22 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: talent around him, So how does he develop with them? Yeah, 23 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 1: and you know, you bring up Terry and obviously he 24 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: looks pretty much like we would expect him to look. 25 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: But you know, and Jehan also has out there. What 26 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 1: do you think about you know, this receiver corps specifically 27 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: like in the bottom where it seem these five, six, 28 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: and seven spots could be a little more competitive. Well, 29 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: I think it's a lot deeper than we've seen it 30 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: should be because you're I'm saying that assuming Dotson's going 31 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: to be really good, because we've seen a lot of 32 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: good things with him in the spring and already early today. 33 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: And then you have Curtis Samuel back, so that adds 34 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: to the depth. I think guys like Cam Sims, I mean, 35 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: he's he's been. I think he's always a guy that 36 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: can come in and give you something out of that 37 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: fifth receiver spot, right, So I think when you have 38 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: guy like him down there, that's a good thing. So 39 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: I think and he can come in his size I 40 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: think works well with Carson Wentz over the middle. So 41 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: I think I think I think you have better competition 42 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: down there than we've seen in recent years. Camp sen 43 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: is always a guy who just finds a way to 44 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: stick around. So last one, we'll switch over to the 45 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: defense real quickly. Looks like they're meant to wrap up 46 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: another team session here. Um you know, linebacker obvious a 47 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: position that has been gotten a live attention. They didn't 48 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: really bring anybody out there. Could bring a veteran maybe 49 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: some time in the next couple of weeks, but we 50 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: don't know yet. What about Jaymin and Cole, Like, do 51 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: you think they're going to step up and take that 52 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: role that people expect them to? Well, I think they 53 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: have to because there is there are no other choices 54 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 1: like they do. I do would expect him to bring 55 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: another veteran in at some point, somebody who probably knows 56 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: the defense. But for now, what you have to see 57 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: is can Cole Holcombe not just know his spot, but 58 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: then be able to communicate it to Jayman what he 59 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: has to do and then react lickily split. That's a trick, right, 60 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 1: and so like last year, I think Cole learned the 61 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: defense very well. I think he's a quick player. But 62 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: can you make that you know, Jayman, you got this, 63 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: you got this ball? Snap now I go without hesitation. 64 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: That's what you want to see, and I think you 65 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: start to see that form for him over at the 66 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: end of last year. Does he carried in? Does he 67 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,799 Speaker 1: build on that? I think with Jayman just you've got 68 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 1: to see the progression. He needs to be on the 69 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: field more, because if he's not, is that a sign 70 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: that he's not progressing and they're not getting out of 71 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,399 Speaker 1: him what they need or what. Because he's a first 72 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: round pick, he's got to be on the field more. 73 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: And already today you see some things you got to 74 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: learn in coverage about like, well, in this coverage, you 75 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: have this responsibility. How do you do with that? I 76 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: thought he started to show some good things towards the 77 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: end of the year, especially in coverage, But again it's 78 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: instincts and I think you know with him, there was 79 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: an adjustment coming out of college. The way they asked 80 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: them to read in college versus here is dramatically different. 81 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: But this is a big year for him. Just take 82 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: that progression and be a more consistent contributor, you know, 83 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: a bullet like Cohlgen has. He have to live up 84 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: to that, right, Yeah, Well, John, I appreciate the time Man. Yeah. 85 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: NBC Sports Washington Ethan Cadell Ethan. You know we went 86 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: to school together, by the way. Yeah, we instan that 87 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: much time. West all you every now and again. But Ethan, 88 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: you know, obviously know after all the months of waiting, 89 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: we're falling here at training camp. How are you feeling 90 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: right now in this first day? I'm excited. It's fun 91 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: to see all the guys back, especially Terry McLaren. We 92 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 1: missed him in Mini camp and Ota, so it's great 93 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: to see the new Carson wants to McLaurin connection eleven 94 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: to seventeen. Yeah, you must have read my notes because 95 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: that's where I was gonna go. Next is what do 96 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: you think about Terry? I mean, he doesn't look any 97 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: different than what you would expect right now. It looks great. 98 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: I mean it's the best quarterback I think he's had 99 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: in his career so far. So I'm expecting a big 100 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 1: year for him, especially after he got paid. So excited 101 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: for him, you know, And obviously he has a new 102 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: quarterback throwing throwing to him, and Carson was he's already 103 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: kind of aired it out a couple times. One of 104 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: them was to a really nice graduate. Terry. I mean, 105 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: what are you expecting out of cars? That's kind of 106 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of a loaded question, but like, what 107 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: do you what do you see? I'm expecting him to 108 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: come out slinging it like this. I mean, I feel 109 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 1: like Carson has something to prove. He has a chip 110 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: on the shoulder in thirteen in three years, but I 111 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: think he's really determined to make it work here. So 112 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: I'm really excited to see what eleven has in store 113 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: for us. Let's go over to the defense for a 114 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: little bit, and you know, obviously Chase Young is not there, 115 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: but yeah, I've seen James with Williams in there. I've 116 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: seen Kasey two hill on there. What are you kind 117 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: of seeing it out of that that other defensive end spot. Yeah, 118 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: I think we just need one person to stuff up. 119 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,239 Speaker 1: I'm not sure who it's gonna be, but Ron Rivera 120 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: said there's gonna be a lot of different guys that 121 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: are gonna have opportunities Shaka Toni as well William Bradley King. 122 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 1: So I'm excited to see what happens. Well, obviously we 123 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: know all the big storylines, right, we know, like, you know, yes, 124 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: Carson is here, Terry is here, all that other stuff, 125 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: But what are some of the other smaller story, you know, 126 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: playing some smaller position battles that you're looking forward to 127 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: developed over the next you know, a few weeks or so. Yeah, 128 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: I'm really looking forward to linebacker jam and Davis, David 129 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: Mayo and those guys to see who takes control of 130 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: the outside positions because we know Cole Holcomb is going 131 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: to be at the mic and also at corner outside 132 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: of William Jackson Kendall Fuller. I'm looking forward to seeing 133 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 1: a jump from Benjamin Saint Juice and the other guys, 134 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 1: to see you a round out the fifty three and 135 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: hopefully our battle with this heat is gonna be victorious. 136 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: I saw here today, so yeah, yeah, yeah, Well, thank you, Ethan. 137 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: I appreciate it.
