1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,639
Speaker 1: Joining us in the Colts Radio studio now is third

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: year cornerback Out of you Mass Isaiah Rodgers is with us. Isaiah,

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: thanks for the time today. How are you hey? You

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: know what, I'm doing pretty good, doing well, doing well. Obviously,

5
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: it's been a difficult last couple of weeks for this team.

6
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: You know, guys have been traded, coaches have been dismissed.

7
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: How difficult was it for you personally to see Frank

8
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: Reich no longer be the head coach of this team?

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: You know, it was hard, you know, in this business,

10
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: you know you gotta also think of the business side.

11
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: But it was also very personal. You know, he was

12
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: the only coach that I experience as I've been here,

13
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: you know, like a like Jeff said, and like Balier

14
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: said as well. You know, it's the business side to it,

15
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: and we all understand that even from Frank's perspective, even

16
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, our jobs alone. Though, you know, I couldn't

17
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: take it too personal, you know, I end of the day,

18
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: you know it's a business thing. Yeah, you talk about

19
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: not taking it too personal, but do you also, I mean,

20
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: what was the locker room reaction to that? What did

21
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: what did guys have to say in terms of I

22
00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,080
Speaker 1: guess collective accountability in the locker rooms part on. You

23
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: know how we got to this point and why Frank

24
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 1: Rock again no longer here. We more so didn't look

25
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: at it how you know, the social social media people

26
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: had looked at it. You know, we all just said,

27
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: we got to look in the mirror. You know, the

28
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: end of the day, we're the ones that make the

29
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 1: plays come to life, and end of the day without

30
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: us playing well, you know, people jobs are at risk,

31
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: you know, and for example, things like this have to happen.

32
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 1: You know, we all we all just had to take

33
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 1: cammability and just knowing that, you know, it all comes

34
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: down to us so the end of the day, rather

35
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 1: whether you want to play good or not, it's a

36
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: mindset thing, you know, it's all in the heart. End

37
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 1: of the day. You gotta look at something in the mirror.

38
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 1: What you put out there on tape is you know,

39
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: as you that's Isaiah Rodgers with us. Lastly, what did

40
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: you take from your time with coach Rock. You've been

41
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,559
Speaker 1: here since two twenty, as you said, he's the prior

42
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 1: to now, he's the only head coach you've known in

43
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: the National Football league. What did you take from him?

44
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: How did he help you grow? Just on and off

45
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: the field, you know, just watching how he moves, you know,

46
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: from a family perspective, you know, he's always at Bible study.

47
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: When I go to Bible study, I've never seen him

48
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: miss him. So it's the it's the little things that

49
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: people don't see behind closed doors that I just admire

50
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: him as a person as a man. All right. Then

51
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: this week, obviously the other side of that coin, Jeff

52
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: Saturday here, now, Um, what was your reaction to that thought?

53
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: I thought it was huge. My family reached out to

54
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: me when they found out the news, and I was

55
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: also like, you know, a huge coach fans growing up

56
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: as well. And also just you know, watch Jeff play

57
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: so just like his grit and just how he goes

58
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: about his work, you know, and him speaking to the team,

59
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: you could just tell like he's fired up about it. Again.

60
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: I know it's early, right when you haven't played a

61
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: game yet with Jeff Saturday as the interim head coach,

62
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,239
Speaker 1: but what was his message to the team taking over

63
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: in the role that that he did, and um, you

64
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: know when he did just reminded us that you know,

65
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: nothing matters what happened before. You know, all we have

66
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: is these eight games and how whatever we put out

67
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: there on tape is, you know, is us. End of

68
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: the day, he's coming in and he's just hoping that

69
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: we can you know, buy in, and that's that's the

70
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: main thing right now, Everyone buy in. Take a week

71
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: by week. You know, it's a basically playoff mode right

72
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: now for us. You gotta win every game from here

73
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: on out basically, and that's how we're looking at it.

74
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: So eight weeks that's Isaiah Rodgers with US Colts cornerback

75
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: on defense. Now you've started the last three game games

76
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: and you're playing a ton, playing a huge role on defense.

77
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: What has that done for your confidence here? Definitely? It

78
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: definitely helps me a lot. You know, at the end

79
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:08,839
Speaker 1: of the day, I just want to be out there

80
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: and getting to start in spot is fun and cool

81
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: and all end of the day, I feel like I

82
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: need to make a lot more plays rather I'm starting

83
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 1: or coming off the bench. You know, I made more

84
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: plays from the previous years, you know, from not starting,

85
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: so you know it starts to start. It's just on paper.

86
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:22,359
Speaker 1: End of the day, I feel like I got to

87
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: get my hands more on the ball and just find

88
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: a way to get turnovers. Yeah. Guy that's gotten his

89
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: hand on the ball a lot over the course of

90
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: his career is Stefan Gilmore. And he has played one

91
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: hundred percent of the snaps and eight of nine games

92
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: this season. You know about his track record, his resume,

93
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: you know, not that long ago defensive player of the

94
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: Year in the National Football League. How has he helped you?

95
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: Inevitably when you're on the field, he is too. I

96
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: think he helped me a lot. He's always like, hey,

97
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: let's go getting the code tel getting hot. For him

98
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: to play one hundred percent of snaps eight to nine

99
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: games at age thirty two shows a lot, you know.

100
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: And he's balling right now and playing really lights out,

101
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: helping us complete games and just to be out there

102
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: at age thirty two. You know, I just look at him.

103
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: I'm only twenty four, twenty five, and that's my goal

104
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: is to play as long as he can and also

105
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: not just be on a team during that time, but

106
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 1: to play one hundred percent of plays as well. Yeah,

107
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: you look at this the big picture on defense. This

108
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: defense is playing great. Now. I know you don't have

109
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: anything to show for it, you know, during a three

110
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 1: game losing skid here, But why do you think the

111
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: defense here around game eight, game nine has sort of

112
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 1: hit it stride. Just the people in the room that

113
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: we have, like the the captains that we have, even

114
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: the guys without a sea on a chest, you know,

115
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: you guys I here he's always speaking up, being a

116
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: great vocal leader and shacks right there as well. You

117
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: got deep buck, Kenny Stefan's finally speaking up in a

118
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: lot So, you know, just a lot of people buying in,

119
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 1: a lot of people, you know, holding people accountable. You know,

120
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we all have to

121
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: be a brother at the end of the day. And

122
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: you know that's what we've been doing and it's been showing. Yeah,

123
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: going back to the secondary, you're a veteran on this

124
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: team now, right as they said in your third year,

125
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,119
Speaker 1: can you explain Rodney Thomas to me? A seventh round

126
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: guy and he started, you know, the last handful of

127
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: games and this moment and this level coming from an

128
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: IVY League school, it's it's not too big for him.

129
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: He's a baller. And we knew it from camp and

130
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: we knew it from preseason. One game he had all

131
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: the erasers tackles and he was just not I knew

132
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: from that moment. We knew that. You know, he's a

133
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: ball player. He can come up and make the plays.

134
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 1: He can also stay back in and get his hand

135
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 1: on the ball like he did against Denver. You know,

136
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: he's he's a baller and he does well he's supposed

137
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: to do and coach tell him to do. This is

138
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: no talking back or nothing like that. So he's just

139
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: he's just learning the game still. So he's not even

140
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 1: probably at his prime right now. He's out about that.

141
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: That's Isaiah Rodgers with us all right. For you and

142
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: this scheme under Gus Bradley, what do you like most

143
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: about him as a coach and this scheme that he brings.

144
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: I think it builds It builds my confidence in my resume.

145
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: This this this defense in this scheme, as you guys

146
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: have seen it, you know it shows a lot of

147
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: crack replaces from the corners. And I think my main

148
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: thing going to this season was I want to be

149
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: a better tackler. You know a lot of people came

150
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,359
Speaker 1: at me last year like he's a good player, but

151
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: he needs to tackle better. I think that that was

152
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: my goal going into this season, and he has helped

153
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 1: me a lot from drills, you know, on and off

154
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: the field, just helped me a lot becoming better tackler.

155
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: And for those that don't know crack replace, can you

156
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: sum up that in terms of from a schematic standpoint

157
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: for for those to understand, it's more so when I'm

158
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 1: guarding the receiver and he doesn't worry about me basically

159
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 1: at all. He goes and try to either take a

160
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: block on a safe the old linebacker and now you're

161
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 1: free make that guy right, you know, so basically as

162
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: open field tackling right, there, no doubt about it. And

163
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: for Gus Bradley again, I know it's early in the week,

164
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: but is this this is a homecoming game of sorts

165
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: for him? How badly does he want to go in

166
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: and play well against his former team and a quarterback

167
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: he saw every day in practice last year and Derek Carr.

168
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it's very personal for him, face Milo,

169
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: the whole, the whole NiFe. Yeah, Ron Milos too, You're

170
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: right unique And I don't know, I feel like it's

171
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: like a homecoming game for them, and it's also one

172
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: for us. You know, these guys. He does. Last year

173
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: we could have clinched the playoffs, so exactly, I think

174
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: it's very personal for pretty much the entire team. All right,

175
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: what do you see in the Raiders. They got a

176
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: lot of firepower on offense. They've got Jacobs, Davante Adams,

177
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: Darren Waller, Derek Carr, you know, a veteran quarterback. What

178
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: is the challenge this week? Here? Two great teams is

179
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: clashing at it. You know, great teams on paper. It's

180
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: both teams going into the game. You're frustrated. You know,

181
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: no one expect to any of our seasons to be

182
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: like how it is right now. I think both teams

183
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: are going to come out, you know, and just trying

184
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: to do whatever they can do to potentially win this

185
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 1: game at the end of the day. Like I said,

186
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: at the Raiders, very very great team, playoff team last year.

187
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: Derek car great quarterback and great running back and you know,

188
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: one of the best receivers in the league, Davante. So

189
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: you know, we just got to go out there and

190
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: continue what we've been doing. It's Isaiah Rodgers with us.

191
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: Final couple of things. You're also returning kickoffs again this year.

192
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: You've had some substantial runbacks, but how close have you been?

193
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: How close are you to breaking the big one for

194
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: a touchdown? Seems like you're only like a block away

195
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: from really making a big impact there. I take I

196
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: take all the credit. Uh, my blockers have been doing

197
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: their job. It's a lot of times we go back

198
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: and watch the film and either I stutter, or I've

199
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: misread it, or my track wasn't right, And I just

200
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: want to get back on track and just being the

201
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: return I know I can be and potentially, you know,

202
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: get into the end zone again. How much do you

203
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: have to take in when when you receive the ball

204
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: like inside the five yard line? How many things do

205
00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: you have to visualize and compute in a short amount

206
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: of time. But during a kickoff return a lot you

207
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 1: got a factor in the win. If you ever watch me,

208
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: I take out a piece of tape or something to

209
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: catch the win right for the kick. And you also

210
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: got to like the hang time no if you want

211
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: to bring the ball out depending and you gotta know

212
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: who's on their kickoff unit to speak guys and stuff

213
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: like that. It's just a lot that comes in the factor.

214
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: He also got to know which way to return is

215
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: going and potentially what you could potentially do sure based

216
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: off you know what they have and how their scheme goes,

217
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: and how much a lot how much time during the

218
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: week do you do study just that part of your

219
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: responsibilities on this team. My main day of special teams

220
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: would be like my tuesdays off days. Bubba sends out

221
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: the notes probably like the afternoon, and he's gonna ask

222
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: a lot of questions on Wednesday. So if you don't

223
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: know he's he's no, you're not preparing. Yeah, Bubba's not

224
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: a guy that's going to tolerate you're showing up and

225
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: having a blank slate there. He'll sneak his phone number

226
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: and most of the notes and he like, text me

227
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: when you see this, so he knows if you see.

228
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: He's real clever what he does. So you really have

229
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: no chance but to check out the notes all right. Lastly,

230
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: Isaiah Rodgers, whether us you still talk to cuzz Oh yeah,

231
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: Dominic Rodgers Crimarti for the that don't know. Is your

232
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 1: cousin right NFL great in his own right? What kind

233
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: of words of wisdom does he continue to give you?

234
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: Literally we talk every day. He sent me a scripture

235
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: every morning, like he doesn't miss a morning. Well he

236
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: has weekdays. I have weekends to talk to send a scripture.

237
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: So you know, we're like brothers, you know. And he

238
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: was talking about coming to Vegas, but he has a

239
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: little a lot going on back home personal things, so yeah,

240
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: you know, but we always in touch. I'm sure he

241
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: hits you up after a good game, right he's the

242
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: first one on the text message on the phone. And

243
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: he always given me great I never had a good

244
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: game in his eyes. He always seen me text messages

245
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: like you should have jumped this, you should have did that.

246
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: I would have done that. So we just compete in basically,

247
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: no doubt. It's a healthy relationship right there. Again, that's

248
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 1: Isaiah Rodgers, third year man cornerback out of you mass

249
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 1: here with the Indianapolis Colts. Isaiah, I appreciate the perspective

250
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: during the coaching changes. Best of luck on defense against

251
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 1: Derek Carr and the Raiders, and we'll talk to you

252
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: down the road. Thank you, appreciate you.
