00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:47,959
Speaker 1: at him before I started the interview. I said, you're

13
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: used to this, aren't you, And He's like, no, man,

14
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: nobody's used to this. It's ridiculous. So it's very hot.

00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: But we're gonna hear from Nick Cassario if you missed

16
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: an interview today. He was very good with us and

17
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: we talked about everything really button show Watson, because that's

18
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: what we talked about on his press conference. Mark and

19
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: I hit on that in just a second as well.

20
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: You're here for Terence Brooks, former Florida State Seminal Star

21
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: back in twenty thirteen, played for the national championship there

22
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: with Jimbo. Fischer has been in the league, been with

23
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: the Patriots, with the Jets, been with a number of teams,

24
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: now with the Texans. Made a really nice pass breakup

25
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 1: today against Brevet Jordan. Ironically a hurricane, which we talk

26
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: about in that interview, So you want to stick around.

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: We'll also have Deep City and Drew Doherty. They're gonna

28
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: close us down pretty much throughout training camp, but they're

29
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: great interviews. A deep slant with Brandon Dunne. It was

30
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: great to see Dunnie back today. Mark and Drew Doherty

31
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: had Drew's dozen with Jacob Martin, who, by the way,

32
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: you will hear tomorrow night interview that Jacob did with

33
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: Mark and I. That was as it was great. I

34
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: as Mark said, I geeked out. Jacob Martin and I

35
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: are talking pass rush and I just totally completely geeked out,

36
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: and it was like Mark was left outside. I didn't

37
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: mean to do that. They just to happen, but it

38
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: was fantastic. We'll have that tomorrow night. We'll have Jews

39
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: interview with Jacob a little later, So Mark, let's just

40
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: get it right later, right on the table, our thoughts,

41
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: our observations, what we thought day one of training camp

42
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: Texans twenty twenty one. Well, there was an elephant on

43
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: the field really with the Deshaun Watson situation, because he

44
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: was there, Johnny and taking some snaps an individual and

45
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: that kind of thing. And you know, I really thought

46
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: it was a contrast there because obviously we know what

47
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: kind of offseason this has been. And then you also

48
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 1: saw OTAs with this team getting its act together with

49
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: all these new players, trying to get ready for the

50
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one campaign, and that's what they were very

51
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: much doing this morning, trying to get ready for the

52
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one campaign. You saw Rod Taylor out there

53
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 1: taking snaps with the first team and Davis Mills with

54
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: the second team for the most part, and obviously the

55
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: other two qbs doing some other things. But the media

56
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: was all over it, of course, and I can't blame them.

57
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 1: I understand this is a huge story. It's a major

58
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 1: national and local story. But Johnny, the tradition of what

59
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: we do, what you and I do, is we talk

60
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: about the entire team. We talk about everything going on

61
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: with this squad, top to bottom, soup to nuts, all

62
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: the position groups, all the positions, And I think it's

63
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: important because you know, you can't just focus on the

64
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: one thing and keep beating that drama. And I know

65
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: other media they take every specific kind of angle you

66
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: can into and out of this story, and that's what

67
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:31,959
Speaker 1: they do. I get it. They're going for the clicks,

68
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: they're going for the eyeballs, they're going for the ears, whatever,

69
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: but we're also going for Hey, this is what this

70
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,839
Speaker 1: team has, this is what this team can do, This

71
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: is what this team needs to work on, this is

72
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: what this team is facing for twenty twenty one. I

73
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: know that this is a major story, major situation it's

74
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: facing and dealing with currently, but also we have so

75
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: many other things to focus on in addition to and

76
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: if we don't do it, no one else will. Right,

77
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it. We're gonna do it. We're gonna

78
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: focus on all the position groups, all the positions on

79
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: this team, all the players, because we know what this

80
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: is about. You and I have been through a lot

81
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: of these already, so we'll continue to do it. But

82
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: I thought it was a major story. It was, Uh,

83
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: you know, it was interesting, but I found myself just

84
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: looking at what I normally look at. Let's see who's

85
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: on this squad. Let's get to know these guys, because

86
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 1: we saw them in a way that we didn't in

87
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: OTAs really engaged in that eleven on eleven type stuff,

88
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: and that was fun to watch. Well you know me,

89
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,559
Speaker 1: I very rarely watched the quarterbacks at all. Anyways, Yeah,

90
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: it was. I mean, obviously, as has become a national

91
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: story is definitely a local story. You listen, you read,

92
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 1: you you can't you can't avoid it. There's no doubt

93
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: about that. However, as Mark said, we play the B sides,

94
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: you know, well, well we played the B side. We

95
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: have no we have no problem. Yeah, we're gonna We're

96
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: gonna play the B side of the album because that's

97
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: what we talked where we talk about the Texans and

98
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: and look, I don't I don't know what the resolution

99
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: on anything with the on will be. I don't know.

100
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: But he did individual work. Here are the facts. He

101
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: did individual work, and then when they did anything that

102
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:13,720
Speaker 1: involved competition, one on one's seven on seven team, anything

103
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: like that, he stepped to the side. Now I don't

104
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: know what this is all going to mean, I have

105
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: no idea. You still got this. Oh, by the way,

106
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: there's this massive legal situation that really anybody applines on

107
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: it that's not an illegal field is silly and foolish.

108
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: And then you're just trying to forecast or project your

109
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: opinion on everything, and that's just not something going to

110
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: do because I don't know Jack, you know what about

111
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: legal So at that point, he's under contract, he doesn't

112
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: want to be fined, and he showed up. So yeah, okay,

113
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: so there you go. Now, can we clear something up?

114
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: Though you're seeing some people tweet out or report that

115
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: he played safety on the scout team. That's not the

116
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: scout team. Okay. The scout team is something very specific,

117
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: and I know that people don't understand what they're looking at,

118
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: so they say scout team. But what they're doing here

119
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: is just giving looks as they're going over some choreography

120
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: that's not really a football word either, but they're just

121
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: giving looks. So any warm body picks up a jersey

122
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: to try to position themselves that way, the quarterbacks and

123
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: running backs or whoever you're working with at the time

124
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: can get a look that's not scout team. You're not

125
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: out there with any kind of defensive players in that situation.

126
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: He just stood there and sort of walk through some things.

127
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: Because they're walking through some things, that is not a

128
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: Scout team situation. So I thought that was a very

129
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: much overblown thing. And as David Kelley said, he handled

130
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: himself like a professional. He was professional out there. He

131
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: was dealing with it the best way he knew how,

132
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: and the team was dealing with it the best way

133
00:06:54,320 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: they could under these circumstances, circumstances which are changing and

134
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: will change, and it's a fluid situation. Like we've always said, Johnny,

135
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: I did, no doubt. And one last thing to that point,

136
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: by the way Larmie Tunsel and Titus Howard played Scout

137
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 1: Team defensive end two today. Yeah, yeah, just by lining

138
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: up over there. I mean, and it's hard to explain anybody.

139
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: It's just, you know, there's their periods where special teams

140
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: are on are working, and so the offensive line goes

141
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 1: off to another field and they go through their different

142
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: offensive line calls, and it just so happened that the

143
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 1: offensive line calls they were doing it with the twos,

144
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: and so like Titus and Larmie were on the other side,

145
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: you know, lining up where they're gonna line up. So

146
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: no one reported that, by the way, that's an exclusive, Yeah, exactly,

147
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: the Texas radio anyways. UM, one thing before we get

148
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: into sort of our observations real quick, I have seen

149
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: from Tom Pella Sero saying that the Texans, I mean,

150
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: Ryanda cop tweeted it. It was just a matter of

151
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: what was going to be the trade of Randal Copp

152
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 1: going back to Green Bay, who we'll see in week

153
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: one of the preseason. And it looks like sources are

154
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: saying a six rounder is coming back to the Texans

155
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: and Cobb is going to Green Bay along with apparently

156
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: three million dollars. I don't know that's what, but we

157
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: know Randall Cobb is going there in Texas, you're getting back.

158
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: It looks like a sixth round pick. So as I

159
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: said to you, I think i've said this song off

160
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: the year. I don't know if I said on the air,

161
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: but you essentially got Anthony Miller a seventh and a

162
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: sixth for Randall Cobb in a fifth and the Bears

163
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: Packers thing. Just who cares, that's what? That's what. That's

164
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: sort of kind of zeroed out too. If you want

165
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: to look at it that way, that's that's your zero

166
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: sum game if you will. And you know, we'll see

167
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: how how it pans out. We'll see how general manager

168
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers handles this up in Green Bay. But we

169
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: kind of have at least a little bit of clarity

170
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 1: on that situation. And Randall put it out there as

171
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: we announced it live on Texas Training Camp Live, that

172
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: he was going to Green Bay. All right, Mark, you're

173
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: your thoughts. It's hard without pads to talk about a

174
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: lot of the lineman, But did you have a player

175
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 1: or two or just situations that kind of stood out

176
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: to you today from practice? Unless you fire away, you get,

177
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: you take first one. All right. I thought Key had

178
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: a nice practice, Johnny. I thought he looked as good

179
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: as anybody out there catching the football. Looked like, look,

180
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 1: it's day one of training camp. But this is what

181
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: we've got, right, And I thought it was a good

182
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,679
Speaker 1: start for him because it's a big year for him.

183
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: It's year four. We just talked about him a week

184
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: or two ago and how he needed to step up

185
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: or show out or whatever, and he did last year

186
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: when he got back into the lineup after the coaching,

187
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: change and everything. And I think that that was a

188
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: promising start for him. And you look around in that

189
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: receiver room, in that group, and he's definitely got to

190
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: step up and show out. Look, Brandon Cookes is a

191
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 1: total pro thoroughbred receiver. Great, thank you, Bubble Rap Okay.

192
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: But I thought Kiki had a really good practice and

193
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: the kind of practice Johnny where he just looked like

194
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: a much better than average NFL receiver. Let's just put

195
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: it that way. I thought Anthony Miller looked really interesting.

196
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: And by interesting, I mean he can help. He can

197
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: definitely help. He's got the wheels, he's got the ability

198
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: to turn on a dime. Brandon Cooks was talking about

199
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: sticking his foot in the ground, and I remember Gary

200
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: Kubiak mentioning a receiver and saying he sticks his foot

201
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: in the ground on the earth moves, and I think

202
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: Anthony Miller has that ability. So that was pretty cool.

203
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 1: And if I have a couple more here, staying with

204
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 1: the offense, Philip lindsay to me, bubble Rap okay, it's

205
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: good to go. Good to go. Look, I don't want

206
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,199
Speaker 1: to see him get hurt. I'm not saying he's fragile

207
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:34,559
Speaker 1: or anything. But you know, you don't want to see

208
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,559
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay get hurt. And I'm just joking about the

209
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,079
Speaker 1: bubble rap. Let's see him continue to work. But that

210
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: was a promising start and it was everything I wanted

211
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 1: to see Sam's pads here from that player. And it

212
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: was good to see Ingram out there because we didn't

213
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: see him in the OTA's and I like that, you

214
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 1: know Ingram, good locker room guide. Let's see what he's

215
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 1: got left. I mean, as McLean said a couple of

216
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 1: years ago, highly productive, So let's see if you can

217
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 1: something out of him. And Davis Mills running with the twos,

218
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 1: Johnny looked like he belonged. I mean, this is a

219
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,959
Speaker 1: rookie out there, and I've seen a whole lot worse

220
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: from veterans out there the first day of training camp.

221
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: You know, you're not seeing the offense usually operate with

222
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: a lot of proficiency in a new coaching change, new

223
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 1: system sort of situation. Here's a rookie who's doing fine

224
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 1: and Taylor. Taylor looked good too, But I'm just saying

225
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: grading on the curve here. I was like, all right,

226
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: that's a rookie doing what he did out there today,

227
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: and look, it didn't blow you away, but it was

228
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 1: solid and I liked seeing that. Yeah, no doubt, Mark

229
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: echo the number of the ones that I would have

230
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 1: Harris hits at Houston Texas dot Com, I said it

231
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: about as well as I possibly could, that that's where

232
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 1: you're gonna get him all because I've got a number

233
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: of hits and observations and marketing a number of them,

234
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: I thought. Nico Collins also keeping on on Isaiah Coulter

235
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: every time I looked up, eighty two is catching the pass,

236
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: I thought, Man, he's in that mode mark of don't

237
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: forget about me. So yeah, that was good stuff. So

238
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: definitely go check that out. And the man who put

239
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 1: it all together seemingly as Nick Cassario, and he sat

240
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: down with us this morning. Here it is full from

241
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 1: soup the nuts with Nick as Sarrio, with myself and

242
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: Mark VanderMeer from Texas Training Camp lot and here he

243
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: is general manager Nickossario, a long walk from the podium

244
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,839
Speaker 1: and headphones. Good morning, Good morning John, Mark. Well, it's

245
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 1: great to see you. And uh, I know you just

246
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: took thirty seven questions about the quarterback situation. But let's

247
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 1: talk about the guys who were here with you. Yeah,

248
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: well it's it's over. But we we observed OTAs and

249
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 1: the guys who were here with you during OTAs, and

250
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: I know that you mentioned carving up reps and things

251
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: like that. We'll be determined on a day to day

252
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: basis almost, But what kind of practice do we expect

253
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: today overall? Nick? Is this is the first day in

254
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 1: and you're not in pads yet. Yeah, it's a great question.

255
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: So look, the rules are, what the rules are relative

256
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: to CBA, So this is kind of the ramp up period.

257
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: So I would say, really this first week will be

258
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: essentially an extension of OTAs in some respects, with the

259
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: addition of maybe some more team related activities. So from

260
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: seven on seven to one on ones to team offense

261
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: versus defense, which we really didn't do much of in

262
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: the spring. So up till that point, everything is probably

263
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: similar relative to the pace relative to individual even some

264
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 1: of the special teams period. And then once we kind

265
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: of get through that, we can do a little bit

266
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: more team working against one another, lineup call to play,

267
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 1: the defense can get the adjustment see the alignment, getting

268
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: the huddle call to play. I would say that will

269
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: be the probably the main difference from the spring relative

270
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: to now. So again, even without pads, you'll still be

271
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 1: able to get enough things done. So we have a

272
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: few team periods lined up here for practice, so we'll

273
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: go through that. So again we'll just get more information

274
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 1: as we go and then kind of ramp up into

275
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 1: the next phase next week when we get ready for

276
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: padded practices and then we can work on maybe more

277
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: of the running games. So with some of this will

278
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: be a little bit more I would say passing emphasis again,

279
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 1: how you double team and deuce block and all that

280
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 1: on with helmets and shorts versus when you actually get

281
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,959
Speaker 1: into a padded practice, you'll be able to see a

282
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: little bit more. Nick, you've reminded us many times as

283
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: you've talked with Mark and I about roster management. It's

284
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: twenty four to seven, three sixty five. It doesn't stop

285
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: even two days before players are report. You make a

286
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: deal for Anthony Miller. What can you tell us about

287
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: Anthony Miller, former Chicago Bearer, former Memphis Tiger. And I'll

288
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 1: ask you this. You tell us and you told us

289
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: the draft is overhyped, Okay, but we know that Anthony Miller.

290
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: I know you spend a lot of time that made

291
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: it feel bad you cut me to the Coordinick, But

292
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: how much do you take out of what scouts are

293
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: able to see of him coming out of Memphis versus

294
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: what they saw with him in Chicago before you bring

295
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: him here to Houston, John, It's actually a really good question,

296
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: and I think you put so much into that college

297
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: scouting process. So you develop a backlog of information and

298
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: a database of information, so you have your evaluations of

299
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: set player coming out. You know, what are the factors,

300
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: what were his skills, what did we think, what we're interacts?

301
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: And then you take that and then we can go

302
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: back and look at the three years of what he

303
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: did in Chicago. And again, when you make a transaction,

304
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: you make a trade, you're taking as much information in

305
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: as possible wherever it comes from. So it's a good

306
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: reference point. A more recent reference point would be what

307
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 1: they did against NFL competition and what they did in

308
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: the league. But again, now you're kind of taking that

309
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: player out of their existing system into a new system.

310
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: And I would say with a player in his particular

311
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: cause he still be some ketchup work that needs to

312
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: be done because you didn't have the ability to kind

313
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: of go through an offseason program. So you know, we'll

314
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: get him up to speed as quickly as possible and

315
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: do the best we can. But you take all the

316
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: information that you have access to and try to use

317
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: that as a part of your decision making process. I

318
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 1: know you said that you have a lot of moving

319
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: parts with the cops situation, but looking at the whole

320
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: group here, Nick, how flexible is it when a guy

321
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: comes in and people label him, oh, he's a slot receiver,

322
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: but maybe he can play outside or maybe an outside

323
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: guy can play the slot sometimes and we saw Cooks

324
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: do some short passing game work last year. How important

325
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: is flexibility in this group? It's a great question, I

326
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: think sometimes and John you've probably seen this a little bit.

327
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: Sometimes people get pigeonholed they can only do this. But again,

328
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: we kind of have to get to take that bias out.

329
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: What you won't really want to do is present the

330
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: player of the information, put him in different spots and

331
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: you might find, you know what, maybe he actually can

332
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 1: do something different than we thought. So again, part of

333
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 1: our responsibility is to maybe put that player in the

334
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: position and not just say he's just this or he's

335
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: just that. You know. So again the player never played

336
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: like Nate Solder, you know, going back to my time

337
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: in New England, you know, he was a left tackle

338
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: and there's a rookie played right tackle in jumbo tight end.

339
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: So if you go into it's saying well he can

340
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: only do this, well, you kind of limit your possibility.

341
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 1: So again, when you actually get down to the fifty

342
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: three man roster, okay, you bring X number of let's

343
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: say receivers to the game, Well you have to be

344
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: able to back up some spots. So who can handle

345
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 1: that job? So that's what part of training camp is for,

346
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: to see who can handle maybe some of those different responsibilities.

347
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: I think, I know we're a few weeks away from

348
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: having to make a cutdown to fifty three. But last

349
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 1: year the NFL, because of COVID, open up the practice

350
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 1: squad rules, and it looks like they're gonna keep them

351
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 1: in place for twenty twenty one. I believe. How does

352
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: that help you as an evaluator of this roster to

353
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: make sure, Hey, I've got the right fifty three, but

354
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: I've got this repository of players that I know I've

355
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: got to be able to count on. How important is

356
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: it to have those rules again at twenty twenty one. No,

357
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,359
Speaker 1: it's a great point, I think. You know, when you

358
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,639
Speaker 1: go through the roster, everybody kind of gets caught up.

359
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,959
Speaker 1: In fifty three, it's fifty three players. But then when

360
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: you add another sixteen let's call it whatever, the number

361
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: is going to be more than likely sixteen. So you're

362
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: working with call it sixty eight, sixty nine, seventy players

363
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,399
Speaker 1: in total. Right, so that's your team. Now, who's on

364
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,479
Speaker 1: who's off the roster? Again, our goal is to try

365
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: to keep as many good players in the building as possible.

366
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: How do you do that and what's the best mechanism

367
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: to do it? Okay, you have to figure out what

368
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 1: makes sense. Okay, do we cut this guy and try

369
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: to put them on a practice squad or you know what,

370
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: we're not sure if we can get him there. You know,

371
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: those are some of the things that we'll go into

372
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 1: some of the psychology as we get a little bit closer.

373
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 1: But you're really looking at that group in totality because

374
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,439
Speaker 1: it any point those players could be active on Sunday

375
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 1: at least that's how we're approaching it. Nick. When you

376
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: look at the scope of camp here, and you've taken

377
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 1: to consideration the weather, the heat, all of it. How

378
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: extensive were those meetings and determining how you're going to

379
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: do business here because you have some guys who coached

380
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 1: here before and played here before, but you have a

381
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,199
Speaker 1: lot of guys who didn't. So how did you go

382
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: about that process? Yeah, it's new for a lot of us,

383
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: and really what you want to do is try to

384
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: educate them. So, I mean, our sports performance staff, strength

385
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: conditioning staff can reiterate some things relative to some of

386
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 1: the data shows this. So but hydration, taken care of

387
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:35,959
Speaker 1: your body. I mean again, we're practicing in the morning

388
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 1: because practice in the afternoon from a health and safety

389
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 1: standpoint could put players at risk, you know, So you

390
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 1: try to do what we feel as best. You know, again,

391
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: we have the bubble, we have outdoor practice field, so

392
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: pooling all that information and you look, you can explain

393
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: it to them and prepare them for it. But then

394
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: they get out here and it's a totally different situation.

395
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: So we got to be a diligent monitor make sure

396
00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: we're not gonna put anybody at Look. Training camp is

397
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: gonna be hot, it's gonna be hard. It's gonna be tough,

398
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna be difficult. It should be. That's what training

399
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 1: campus designed for. But you also want to make sure

400
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: you don't put the players in his position, you know,

401
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 1: where they're at risk for no particular reason. Along those lines, Nick,

402
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 1: I've read different coaches and different people talk about what

403
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 1: COVID last year taught them and kind of the ramp

404
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: up to their season. I listen to Matt Campbell talk

405
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: about a Friday State and some others. Does any of

406
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: that kind of carry over to this year and maybe

407
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: using some of the efficiencies found going through that, even

408
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: though it's a rough situation to take and put it

409
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: towards this year and the fact he got another week

410
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 1: added on to the season, Does any of that kind

411
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: of carry over any kind of best practices from last year? Absolutely? Absolutely,

412
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 1: and we try to incorporate them to the best of

413
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 1: our ability. Because again, I mean we just talked about

414
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: this a few minutes ago with the press. I mean,

415
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: COVID is still relevant and it's still out there and

416
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: we're going to be dealing with it and it's probably

417
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: not going away. So your ability to kind of adapt

418
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: and adjust on the fly. We have experience doing that.

419
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 1: Last year, I think everybody, teams, coaches, staff, the league

420
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: showed the ability to be to adjust. So I think

421
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: you have to be flexible when you're thinking and can't

422
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: get so caught up in oh man, we can't do this,

423
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: we can't do that. It's really what can we do.

424
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,439
Speaker 1: We're not gonna make excuses and we're gonna try to

425
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: maximize whatever the resources we have are. Are you throwing today? Yeah?

426
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: How's the wing? How's the gonna I'm gonna have to

427
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: go out there and warm up before practice, so I

428
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: know nobody wants to see me throw. But whatever I

429
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 1: could do to help the team, then I'll do that.

430
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: We got one hundred throws a day. Yeah, I don't know.

431
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: I'm getting a little bit older, so I don't know

432
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: if I can contain that performance. We have video guys

433
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: ready ready for this, and I'm sure the cameras will

434
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: be on me. Yeah, said, there will be a telestrator

435
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: later on man a Johnny straighter. All right, Nick, thanks

436
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 1: a lot for joining us. Well, thank you so much.

437
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: Appreciate have a great day. But I was fun catching

438
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 1: up with Nick as Sario this morning on Texas training camp.

439
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 1: Live and yes, if he is throwing I am doing

440
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: a telestrator absolutely without question. I think you would actually

441
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: have fun with it too. He might come join me.

442
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 1: He's that kind of guy, and he has put this

443
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: team together and we'll continue to put it together. Twenty

444
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: four seven, three sixty five. Man, that roster management always

445
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: going on. We mentioned Randall Cobb deal. Looks like that

446
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: thing is done. A sixth rounder coming back to the

447
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 1: pack coming back from the packers. So you look at

448
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 1: it like this, Anthony Miller, a seventh and a sixth

449
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: for Cobb and a fifth if you just aggregate those trades,

450
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: think about that way. Kind of like it. I kind

451
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,600
Speaker 1: of like it. We'll see what Anthony Miller's got very

452
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: very soon. All Right, we get back Terre's Brooks safety.

453
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna joy marking myself right here at Texans All Axis.

00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 1: Texans Media Days with Gosh. I think about two dozen players.

461
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: I think that's what it turned out to me. Maybe

462
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 1: it's like twenty or so, twenty twenty four somewhere in there.

463
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. It just felt like one player after

464
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: the next. It was just walking in our studio and

465
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 1: a lot of these guys we were meeting for the

466
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: first time, even if they had been in the building before.

467
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 1: I think we were playing A handful of John Weekes,

468
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: Titus Howard were a couple that we at least knew

469
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,800
Speaker 1: and they knew us. Other than that, it was a

470
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 1: lot of new faces walking in there. And after we

471
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: were all done, man, we had a really good time

472
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 1: interviewing a lot of the guys. And one of those

473
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 1: guys was a guy I'll be watching for a long time,

474
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 1: and I asked him a question I've been thinking about

475
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 1: for a long time. Some of these guys that play

476
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: for the great college teams win championships. Always I want

477
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: to talk about their college teams, and obviously I want

478
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: to talk about them as Texans too. And Terence Brooks

479
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen as a senior with Seminoles. Florida State

480
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: Seminals won a national championship. Jameis Winston the quarterback, Brooks

481
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,199
Speaker 1: in the bat defensive backfield alongside Jalen Ramsey. Davante Freeman

482
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: was a running back, Kelvin Benjamin was a wide receiver,

483
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 1: and they were all. That team was jacked and loaded.

484
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,640
Speaker 1: Oh and by the way, Aggie a team coached by

485
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: one Jimbo Fisher. Now with Texas A and M. We

486
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,360
Speaker 1: had a blast talking with Terrence Brooks, and we right

487
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: out of the gate, Him being a Seminole, Mark being

488
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 1: the former voice of the Miami Hurricanes, kind of settled

489
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: something that I really didn't believe Mark about, but Terrence

490
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: was able to settle that. We had a great time

491
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 1: talking to Terrence Brooks. Here we go, Terrence Brooks joining

492
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: us on Texans Radio. Okay, so, how's it been for

493
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 1: you so far here in Houston? How are you getting

494
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 1: along with everybody in the city and acclimated and all

495
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: of that. Honestly, I love it. A lot of the

496
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: teammates I played with that the Patriots, so I got

497
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 1: to know quite a few of those guys. So I

498
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: felt right at home with that Houston. Being in the South,

499
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: I mean, it's always a plus with me from Florida.

500
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: But food is great, people are great, good Southern hospitality.

501
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 1: I love it. And you played for all these NFL

502
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: teams in the Northeast, Yeah, I mean you were stuck

503
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:56,919
Speaker 1: up there for a lot. But it was a great experience. Man.

504
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: I spent some good time up there, met some great people,

505
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,199
Speaker 1: learned a lot about the game. But I'm happy to

506
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: be in the South. Toga. Being back down here to

507
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: new franchise. Now, you've been with different franchises, but being here,

508
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: whether it's some familiarity, there are some people that you're

509
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 1: familiar with. How do how does that kind of helped

510
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: the transition, if you will, to come to Houston, to

511
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 1: have some familiar faces in the building, It just makes

512
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 1: it a little easier, a little bit more comfortable, you know,

513
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: get the chat with some guys that you've been around

514
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: for a while, So it makes the game a little

515
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 1: bit more fun and easy. But for the most part,

516
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: it just feels like home. Man. That's the part that

517
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: I love the most. And these guys are all buying

518
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: in and it just feels good. It's a great atmosphere.

519
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: What are we going to see when you guys start playing,

520
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,360
Speaker 1: what are we going to see on that back end?

521
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: I don't know about everybody else, but I know like

522
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: what I bring to the table. Definitely that physical mindset.

523
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 1: You get a lot of talk out there, but you

524
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: want guys to be able to back it up as well.

525
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: But just a lot of energy, man, Just getting guys

526
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: who love football, love to be out on the field

527
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: and fight for each other. That's that's basically what we

528
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 1: want as a whole unit. Are the twenty thirteen Florida

529
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: State Seminoles the greatest college football? Yes? Why? I mean,

530
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: I don't think I need to explace. The film speaks

531
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: for itself, man, But me honestly, that whole team was stacked,

532
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: all twenty two guys outside of the ball going to

533
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: the NFL getting drafted. I mean that that team was very,

534
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 1: very special, and there was a lot of guys who

535
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: held each other accountable. Didn't look into hey, we're just

536
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 1: trying to make it to the pros. It was one

537
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 1: game at a time, and gradually it just started to

538
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: get like, hey man, we're pretty damn good. Did you

539
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 1: hear from a lot of the old seminals when you

540
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: guys started to really hit it big. When you hit

541
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:28,120
Speaker 1: your stride, they come around. I think it was always

542
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 1: kind of new, just because Jamis was a new quarterback

543
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: and he was still learning. But I think once we

544
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 1: played Clemson that year and I was like the biggest

545
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: game to like really test us, and we went out

546
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: there and kick some bups like real good. But at

547
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: that time and then that's when guys are like, Okay,

548
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: these guys are the real deal. They're doing something good.

549
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: And we definitely got tested here and there throughout the season.

550
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: But for the most part, man, it was just guys

551
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 1: were begging to get back on the field. But our

552
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: offense was putting up forty five points before the half.

553
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: So it was a crazy experience. And I mean, we're

554
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: all still so close, but it was definitely a special year.

555
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: It was nothing like it. Amazing secondary. Jalen Ramsey back,

556
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: there was a young pup. Yeah, he's playing safety, He's

557
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: playing all over the place. For you guys, at that point,

558
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: you had a lot of players in that secondary. So

559
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: you've been around, You've seen different secondaries, You've seen really

560
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: really good ones. What is the key to having a

561
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 1: great overall secondary? Oh Man? Communication I think, and something

562
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: that was big for us as we all hung out

563
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: with each other too, so we got a chance to

564
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 1: really know what each other was thinking, just how each

565
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: other acts. We know if a guy's feeling down, we

566
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:31,639
Speaker 1: know what to say to him. I mean, it was

567
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: kind of like the little things on and off the

568
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 1: field that really made us that close. And when we

569
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: got on the field, it was just we made practice

570
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,119
Speaker 1: so hard against our offense, and they did the same

571
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: with us, with Jamis and the Kenny Shaw's and the

572
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: Kevin Benjamin's and Nicole Leries like those type of guys

573
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: and DeMarte Freeman. I mean, the practice is definitely harder

574
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: than than games period. So when it was time to

575
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 1: go out there, we already knew what we can do,

576
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: and it was just a matter of like, hey, how

577
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 1: bad can we beat these guys? How how can we

578
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 1: show how good we are? At that point, and sometimes

579
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,160
Speaker 1: just knowing what we had on the field, it's kind

580
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: of hard to stand out. So you had a lot

581
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: of guys out there who were so so damn good,

582
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: it was just kind of hard for them to be like, hey,

583
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 1: this is the best guy. This is the best guy.

584
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 1: Because everybody was that good. So we kind of took

585
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,400
Speaker 1: it upon ourselves, like, Hey, who's gonna be the guy

586
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 1: this week to made the most places and who's gonna

587
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: be the biggest Like it was that type of competition

588
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 1: within us because we figured that we were our only

589
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: competition at that point, and that's what gave us the

590
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: confidence of Guarden in play so well. Terrence Brooks with

591
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: us on Texas Radio. All right, so you grew up

592
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 1: not far from Gainesville, right, but you got to Florida State.

593
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: What's high school of football like in the state of Florida.

594
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 1: I know John Harris here coached high school ball in Florida,

595
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: But you're in Houston and it's pretty big here. Sure

596
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 1: you're gonna take a look at some games this fall,

597
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 1: but what do you what can you tell us about

Speaker 1: good old country boys out there just playing football who

600
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: love it. I mean, there's not much to do out there,

601
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 1: I know in my small time to know, and all

602
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 1: we did was float down the river or have little

603
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: parties in the woods and stuff like that and then

604
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 1: play football and that was pretty much it. But man,

605
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: you just get some guys out there who just loved

606
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: the work. You'll get guys play football and then go

607
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,719
Speaker 1: work in the watermelon field or go pick peas and

608
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: stuff like that, just to get some money and stuff.

609
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: So you got some hard working guys who want to

610
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 1: make it out and make a name for themselves. And

611
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: that's kind of like pretty much what I had to do.

612
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:14,720

642
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: I'm definitely not choosing the Gators. That's okay, that's well, okay,

643
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 1: I mean I lived in Jacksonville, so I saw Gators.

644
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: I saw Gators and knowles, I saw that. But you

645
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: don't feel that way about the Canes, y'all, the bigger

646
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: battles with the Caynes. I don't know, it's just something

647
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: different about Florida. I told you this. I know this

648
00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 1: is the thing. I mean, Mark and I have talked

649
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: about this all the time, like the hatred. Back in

650
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: the late nineteen nineties and the early two thousands, Mark

651
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: was the play playboys for the Hurricanes and told me

652
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: about those great games. What is it about playing Miami

653
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: in Flourish State? There's something about that? What is there

654
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: about playing the Gators Florid State and Florida and you

655
00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: play both of them and you're in a conference which

656
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: somehow the SEC doesn't find a way to play games

657
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: in the conference, but you play both of them Miami,

658
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: it's it's more I got more respect from Miami. I

659
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 1: just I can respect those guys. I like those guys.

660
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: It's it's it's a fun rivalry. But with the Gators,

661
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: it's just like it's it's pure something personal. Yeah, it's

662
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 1: very personal. I mean in every type of way. I mean,

663
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: I would love to play the Gators in their hometown

664
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: every single time. And we did that scene that that

665
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: last season twenty thirteen on them, So I mean I

666
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 1: love that each and every time. I just it's just

667
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 1: something about those guys, you know what I think it is.

668
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: And it's a kind of a personal thing because back

669
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: in high school, they wanted me to come to a

670
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: camp them and it's like, hey, you locked down these receivers,

671
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: you do this and that scholarship. When it did just that,

672
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 1: no scholarship. Oh, next week, went to the Showtime camp

673
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 1: in in Tallahassee, committed there. They did not like that,

674
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: and I was just like, you guys kind of played me.

675
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: And then I was like and then we went back

676
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 1: and then I went I wanted. I don't think I

677
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: lost them one time, but the other times we went

678
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 1: to the championship and got that. So what's what's that like?

679
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: Because a lot of the guys you played with or

680
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: you played against high school, you're seeing them again in college.

681
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: Does that just foster the rivalry? Not much more, because

682
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,719
Speaker 1: you know those guys, you've known them from you know,

683
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 1: playing Mighty Mike ball pretty much. Man. I just I

684
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: just don't like Florida. It's just something about even the colors.

685
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 1: I just I just can't do it. And so somebody

686
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 1: comes up, it does The Gator chop is on basically

687
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,920

723
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: I'm back moving. It's been rehabbing ever since my injury.

724
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,320

00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 1: be back out here, all right. So Lovey Smith's out there.

726
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: We saw him first training camp as Houston Texans defensive

727
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: coordinator what's it like being in his defense? You got

728
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 1: to learn from him in this offseason. You've obviously learned

729
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: out of some great defensive coordinators. But what's Lovey style

730
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: like and what makes you excited about playing in his defense? Um,

731
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: he's he's an attacking guy. He likes to attack. His

732
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 1: defense is all about attacking, and man, love you don't

733
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: see it at all. So you know, he's like a

734
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: I guess I'll walk into the source a webster. You know.

735
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: You ask him anything about football and he knows. Uh.

736
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,880
Speaker 1: You know. It's a great coach to have, especially for me,

737
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 1: somebody who can you know, I'm a guy who likes

738
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: to pick somebody's brain and that's what I do. So

739
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,920
Speaker 1: having coach Lovey's a big help everybody on his defense?

740
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 1: All right, Bobby King, we talked to him this offseason.

741
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 1: He says he feels really comfortable as a D line coach,

742
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 1: like that's where his heart was. So what's it like

743
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: having him and a room full of guys that's got

744
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: a lot of veterans like yourself, even from other teams

745
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 1: with Shock Loss and Malie Collins and guys like Whitney

746
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: Merciless and Jacob Martin, give us a sense of what

747
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 1: that whole D line group room is like. Man, A

748
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 1: lot experience. Man, A lot of guys who you know what,

749

Speaker 1: played a lot of ball, you know, a lot of

750
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: new pieces. So we all got to you know, figure out,

751
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 1: you know, how each other plays. But you know, Bobby

752
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 1: keeps us together. He works as hard. He works his heart. Um,

753
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,399
Speaker 1: you know as soon as you get out there be working.

754
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: You know. It's uh, he has a model. You know

755
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. If you work, I'll give you, I'll

756
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 1: reward you. So everybody's come from that same mental you know,

757
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: all the guys who's been veteran, So it's like each

758
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: each one to teach one situation. So you know, there's

759
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 1: no dumb questions in our room. That's what we say.

760
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 1: So everybody just want to learn and get better. I

761
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,560

762
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: one to get here to year six and look where

763
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:13,760
Speaker 1: you are now. Do you ever think back and reflect

764
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 1: on where you were as a rookie coming in fighting

765
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: for a roster spot and how long you've been able

766
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: to stick with the team and really make a difference

767
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: on defense. Yeah, Man, always always look back, you know,

768
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: saying reminist a little bit, but with me, I just

769
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: keep going forward. You know, I'm undrafted. Uh you know,

770
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: some guys didn't even make it, make it this far.

771
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 1: And for me to be here today in the front

772
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,399
Speaker 1: of you guys as a blessing, you know, stay out.

773
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: My chip on my shoulder still feel like you know,

774
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 1: you know, some people don't believe I'm supposed to be here,

775
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: but listen, I'm here to work. I get better. You know,

776
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: my work does my work, and my play is self expondatory.

777
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 1: So you know, me being undrafted maybe like two years ago,

778
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying was, you know, a big

779
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:49,919
Speaker 1: drift for me. But now it is just getting better

780
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: and understanding that you know, I belong here. I can

781
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: play with, you know, with these guys, and on top

782
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: of that, you know, my team needs me to win.

783
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 1: So you know, I'm happy being in a position I am.

784
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: You know, I'm on a dog and that's I want

785
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 1: to have no other way. All right, Before I let

786
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 1: you go, we saw the locker room reveal. It looks

787
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 1: brand new, It's totally tricked out, and I have to

788
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: ask you about being DJ Dunny because you are the

789
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 1: official locker room DJ you were, but now it kind

790
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 1: of looks like a club. So does the vibe change

791
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: a little bit in the locker room to get change

792
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: if anything gets on steroids. If anything, the locker room

793
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,840
Speaker 1: just amplified it. You know, I'd like to say, we

794
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,360
Speaker 1: got disco lights. We can go with tuning battle about

795
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: a red you know, Liberty and White and D's still

796
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 1: blue with the lights. So you know, it's a fun time. Man,

797
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: Cal really hooked us up with that locker room. So

798
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 1: you know, I'm just really looking forward to going to

799
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 1: w and coming and celebrating that locker room. We're going,

800
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 1: all right, We are really looking forward to seeing you

801
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 1: here in year six. Brandon done, Thank so much for

802
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 1: joining us today. Thank you man. It was good to

803
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 1: see nine two in the lineup today. Well that was fun.

804
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: I was really excited to see him back after that

805
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 1: hip injury and being at Chicago. That is one of

806
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:47,720
Speaker 1: the things I do remember about that trip to Chicago

807
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 1: is Duney getting hurt. I wonder in a new locker

808
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,399
Speaker 1: room now that I just think about it, I wonder

809
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 1: where the ox cable is and whether DJ Dunny is

810
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 1: still in charge of it. He should be, I mean

811
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 1: there's no doubt he should be. But anyways, that's for

812
00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 1: a different time and day. But point being, Brandon done

813
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 1: back at camp today and that was some great news.

814
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 1: All right, Let's hear from Drew Doherty, who caught up

815
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,880
Speaker 1: with past rusher extraordinaire Jacob Martin. Time for Drews doesn't

816
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 1: it's a guy who's done this before. It's good to

817
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,920

00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,760
Speaker 1: you spent some time with Malie who you just mentioned,

851
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 1: and what sort of stuff you're working on after I

852
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: mean you guys go through so dang much during a practice,

853
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,919
Speaker 1: but you spend about twenty minutes working on other things.

854
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 1: What are you trying to perfect when you're doing that? Uh,

855
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:50,680
Speaker 1: you know, just the small little details of the game,

856
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 1: you know, Um, whatever you messed up with or didn't

857
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: didn't like in practice, you know, or I need to

858
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,760
Speaker 1: clean up some better footwork or uh different different pastors

859
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 1: moves or different hand placements. Um, just getting those those

860
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 1: really really focused on the on the little details of

861
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 1: the game. You know. What was one thing that you

862
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: wanted to get better at this offseason? Uh, counters you know, Uh,

863
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 1: really working on counters and making all my Russians look

864
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 1: the same. So how much you get to work on

865
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,240
Speaker 1: that during a practice? Uh quite a bit, you know. Uh.

866
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 1: Coach Bobby doesn't does a great job, you know. And

867
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,879
Speaker 1: then working working with the lineman you know, and whether

868
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: the team periods or the one on one situations. Um,

869
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: and then after practice, you know, you try to get

870
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 1: as much work as you possibly can. All right, let's

871
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,959
Speaker 1: rank the Jacob's Jacob Martin, former NFL great Jacob Green,

872
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: actor Jake Jillen Hall, John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt and Jacob's ladder.

873
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,840
Speaker 1: How do they shake out? Well, Jacob ladders last. That

874
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:46,479
Speaker 1: is terrible. Uh, John Jacob's second, Uh, second to last,

875
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: second to last, Jacob Martin's first. You know that's me. Um,

876
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 1: and then Jacob Green would be second. Um. Uh, where's

877
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 1: the other one? Jake Jillen Hall the actor then than

878
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 1: Jake jill Hall. For sure. I like it. Finis is

879
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: a good thing. Some guys go the other way and

880
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 1: they put like the famous people first, not you, Jacob Martin. No,

881
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 1: what's one thing this offseason off the field that you're

882
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: most proud of her most talkative about when people ask, Hey,

883
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 1: how you've been Uh, you know, really just the work

884
00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,279
Speaker 1: that was put in, you know, and and getting to

885
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 1: work with the guys that I'm playing with. You know, really,

886
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: I was really excited about working, you know, whether it

887
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: was here or with BT Jordan, you know, seeing the

888
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 1: guys that were actually here I practice, you know, be

889
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,320
Speaker 1: on the work with them this off season, you know

890
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: that that was really cool to see. You know, I

891
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: haven't really been around anything like that where the majority

892
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: of the guy had stayed in town, you know, and

893
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 1: and got better. So you stay in town most of

894
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,359
Speaker 1: the time. Did you go anyplace cool though? Oh yeah,

895
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 1: we took a linebacker trip to Mexico and UM got

896
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 1: chance to go to Colorado for a little bit. I

897
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: was in Philly for a second, you know, so I

898
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 1: got I got around a little bit on the linebacker's trip.

899
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: Who packed the most and who packed the least? Um,

900
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,360
Speaker 1: I'm most definitely packed the most. You know, I'd like

901
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 1: to be prepared. Um, And I would say Peter Commbay

902
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 1: packed from the police. Peter Columbay packed the police. So

903
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: when you pack the most, what's going in a suitcase

904
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:12,280
Speaker 1: that is just above and beyond the essential stuff? Uh? Shoes, man, shoes,

905
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 1: gonna have options, you know, but you're in Mexico and

906
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: it mostly flip flops and being barefoot, barefoot probably not

907
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 1: maybe on the sand of the beach barefoot, Um, flip flops.

908
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: You know that's like I only got one pair of rainbows,

909
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Um, But tennis shoes, man,

910
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: tennis shoes? How often do you wear flip flops? And

911
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,319
Speaker 1: Houston all the time and summertime? Because some people are

912
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 1: very anti flip flop and those of you who are

913
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:37,640
