So this place has been healthy for me, 175 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 15: and so going forward I believe would be the same thing. 176 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 13: You know, I'm hoping and praying that you know, guy 177 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 13: puts me in our position. 178 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 3: Can you put your finger on what kind of went 179 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 3: wrong for the defense this year under coach Nielsen? 180 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 15: I I don't think we had enough synergy as a group. 181 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 14: Uh. 182 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 15: I think there were times where certain guys are playing 183 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 15: their butt off and as a group we didn't all 184 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 15: show up at the same time. 185 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 13: That's kind of what it felt like. 186 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 15: It was like trying to cover for one guy and 187 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 15: not doing his job, and then he gets out of position, 188 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 15: and then it kind of was like just went down 189 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 15: the tote bo. 190 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 9: How were you remember Devi Peterson as a coach? 191 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 15: Really great man. I think for me, I didn't you know, 192 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 15: I Doug's probably the best head coach I've had. So, 193 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 15: you know, for me, like I came from Syracuse, came here, 194 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 15: had my first year, which wasn't a great year, and then, uh, 195 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 15: Doug kind of showed me what the NFL was supposed 196 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 15: to be like and what it looks. 197 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 13: Like in his program. 198 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 9: Uh. 199 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 13: The hard work we put in is second or nothing. 200 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 15: So you know wherever our end up, whether it's here 201 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 15: somewhere else, like whatever whatever program I'm under. He set 202 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 15: the foundation for my career in terms of how it's supposed. 203 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 13: To look in the grind and and how you. 204 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 16: Prepare a direct Guys seeing her say you gotta learn 205 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 16: how to win, but the fall cause this team or 206 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 16: guys from twenty two who didn't win, So how does. 207 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 15: That fall apart like that how to get you? 208 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 6: I'm assuming guys. 209 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 5: Didn't forget how to end? 210 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, it's a good question. I think this is 211 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 15: the time to meditate on that. I think all year 212 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 15: we kind of we're expecting the rock to break at 213 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 15: some point and then got to a point with like 214 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 15: no return. But I think injuries definitely bid us this year. 215 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 15: But I don't I mean I do. I don't know, 216 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 15: you'd be quite honest with you, I think we do. 217 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 15: Like you said, the core group of guys that were 218 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 15: here in twenty two when we won are still here. 219 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,719 Speaker 13: So you know, hopefully we can figure that out. 220 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 9: There's something you. 221 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 14: Said for fresh start. 222 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 4: Do you want a fresh start somewhere else or do 223 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 4: you want to be back here, I do you have 224 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 4: your preference? 225 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 13: I mean, I think there's part of a fresh start 226 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 13: even here. 227 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 15: You know, you know now that we'll have a new leadership. 228 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 15: But I think for me, a fresh start isn't really 229 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 15: an environmental thing. I think you could kind of start fresh, 230 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 15: but I just continue to hone in on what you know, 231 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 15: you want to change about yourself, change about your game, 232 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 15: and it's uh, you know, sometimes the environment changes not 233 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 15: always the best. 234 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 17: Obviously, it's unfortunate because at the end of the day, Uh, 235 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 17: we all had a hand and you know, this season 236 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 17: and just how the way things have shaken out. 237 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 9: I have a ton of respect for Doug. He's maybe 238 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 9: a better football. 239 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 17: Player, a better man, and you know, I think he's 240 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 17: one of the better coaches to have coached in this league. 241 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 17: And it's just unfortunate the way that things went. But 242 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 17: obviously the organization has to make a decision that they 243 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 17: feel is best going forward. 244 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 9: What did you like to see the next Lee year 245 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 9: for the Jaywash I think that's a tough question to 246 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 9: answer right now. 247 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 17: I just think obviously we're all processing the end of 248 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 17: the season. 249 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 9: We're all reflecting on. 250 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 17: Just us ourselves individually and as a team, because. 251 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 9: Like I said, we all had a hand in this. 252 00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 9: So I think the important thing right now. 253 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 17: Is to just reflect personally on what you can do 254 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 17: better going forward, all the learning uh opportunities that were 255 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 17: taken from this year, and and really focus on that. 256 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 9: What benefits do. 257 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 6: You see by retaining trend ball, you know, continuity or whatever, uh, 258 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 6: whatever word you care to use. 259 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 17: I mean, I play for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and when 260 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 17: I put on that uniform i step in this building, 261 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 17: I'm just here to be a professional, help this locker room, 262 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 17: help everybody I come in contact with, to be better, 263 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 17: and to help win football games. And no matter what, 264 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 17: no matter who's here, that's my sole goal when I 265 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 17: step in the building. 266 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 9: So that's really all I'm focused on. 267 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 13: Do you expect to be here next year? 268 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 9: Yeah? 269 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 17: I would love to be here, and I mean I'm 270 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 17: under contract still obviously there's other things that I can't 271 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 17: really control, So I'm just kind of focused on being 272 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 17: healthy again next next year, being healthy this offseason, getting healthy, 273 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 17: and just being the best player that I can be, 274 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 17: because you know, I feel like I've proven that when 275 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 17: I'm on the field. Uh, you know, I am one 276 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 17: of those players that is one of the better ones 277 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 17: on the field, and so I'm just looking forward to 278 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 17: to getting back to that. 279 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,119 Speaker 9: And I wanted to be here in Jacksonville. 280 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 8: How frustrating has these last two years, remember you not 281 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 8: being able to. 282 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 9: Finish the other one out? 283 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 17: Yeah, it's it's been probably the hardest two years in 284 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 17: my career so far. Just you know, I've missed more 285 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 17: games in these past two years and I have my 286 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 17: whole football career, So it's been a lot mentally, but 287 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 17: nothing that I can't overcome. 288 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 9: You know. 289 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 17: I like to embrace adversity. I hope I've displayed that 290 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 17: to my teammates and people that have been around me. 291 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 17: So I'm just looking to be on the other side 292 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 17: of it, and you know, I know that part of 293 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 17: my story is gonna be great, and I'm just looking 294 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 17: forward to just getting back to that. I've tacked attacked 295 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 17: every bit of my my rehab and so I'll be 296 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 17: confident that I'll be back and better. Sorryhood, it's been 297 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 17: the saving grace through it all. 298 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 9: You know. 299 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 17: We actually found out when we were over in London, 300 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 17: and then a. 301 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 13: Week later I get hurt. 302 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 17: But it just puts everything in perspective, because football is great, right, 303 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 17: I love football, It's been my whole entire life. But 304 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 17: you know, when you find out that you're bringing a 305 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 17: child into this world, and just the love that I 306 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 17: already feel for that child, it just this is all 307 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 17: mini school, and so I'm just more more excited every 308 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 17: single day that goes past to uh to to meet 309 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 17: the baby. And but it's been a great experience so far. 310 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 17: And so it's hard to put your finger on why 311 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 17: you start losing games. Obviously there's statistics and whatnot. He 312 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 17: lose one store of games. You're not able to finish 313 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 17: at the end of the game, at the end of 314 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 17: those games, and so yeah, maybe that has part of it, 315 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 17: but you know, there's there's other eccentrics that go into it, 316 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 17: and so I just feel like, you know, it just 317 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 17: goes to show that you can't hang your head at 318 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 17: on things that made you successful in the past. You know, 319 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 17: you have to be dynamic with how that season is going, 320 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 17: and you know, unfortunately we just weren't able to do 321 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 17: that in the past two years. 322 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 4: So what does this team need heading into twenty twenty five? 323 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 9: Like I said, I think that's you know, a hard question. 324 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 17: To kind of to forecast right now and to be 325 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 17: able to answer just because I think everybody right now 326 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 17: needs to just focus on what they can do individually. 327 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 17: That's what you know, my message would be is to 328 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 17: just you know, look in the mirror, you know, do 329 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 17: all the self scouting that you can do, you can do, 330 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 17: and then you know, once you step back into this 331 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 17: building when we're required to be, just show up the 332 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 17: best you know football player that you can be and 333 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 17: be ready to attack into the year. 334 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 11: What do you say to a young guy like Brian 335 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 11: after what he accomplished in his rookie season to get him. 336 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 17: Ready for your two So, you know, obviously right now 337 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 17: to enjoy it, you should be very you know, you 338 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 17: should be very proud of himself.

And I think just we didn't do well 706 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 14: enough in those moments to seize the opportunity to end 707 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 14: up on the better side than decided that we you know, 708 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 14: ended up on to sh to. 709 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 9: Shot his decision to part ways with Doug. 710 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 5: And became Trent. 711 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 9: I mean, the y it, it's the league. H. 712 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 14: When you don't win, there's changes that come, uh from 713 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:46,479 Speaker 14: in all areas coaching, UH, management and in the players. 714 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 14: So there's gonna be a lot There's gonna be a 715 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 14: lot of changes moving forward, you know, based on us 716 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 14: not getting the job done. And UH it's unfortunate. It's 717 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 14: been a great three years playing for Doug. I've learned 718 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 14: a lot, I've grown a lot, and UH this place 719 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 14: is definitely this place is definitely gonna grow from the 720 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 14: experiences we've had under him, and UH moving forward is. 721 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 9: It's definitely gonna be different. 722 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 14: But uh, I appreciate Doug for everything he's done and 723 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 14: you know, wish him the best moving forward. 724 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 5: Could it surprise you that that Doug was was hard? 725 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 9: It's very unpredictable. You just never know. 726 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 14: Uh, there's a lot of factors that have gone into 727 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 14: our season. It's not just the coaching, it's not just 728 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 14: one part of it. It's everybody. So you know, I 729 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 14: I've been in this league for a while trying not 730 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 14: to get into the whole, you know, that side of it. 731 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 14: So definitely, it's it's always unfortunate.

Uh so uh you know 736 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 14: everything is uh, all that stuff is out of my control. Well, 737 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 14: I definitely, uh you know when that when that time 738 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 14: comes to to address that and to move forward with 739 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 14: that outcome. 740 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:07,959 Speaker 9: But it's that's tough for me.

What given this group of guys. 743 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 9: This personalities with the team right now? What kind of 744 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 9: coach do. 745 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 13: You think is needed a tougher guy. 746 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 12: Uh? 747 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 9: Uh, another player's coach. You know, any thoughts on that, 748 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 9: Like I said, that's that's tough to answer right now. 749 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 14: I know from a players standpoint, Uh, there's a lot 750 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 14: of things that we gotta be better at at the 751 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 14: unit from all three phases of the ball. At the 752 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 14: end of the day, where the players were, we're the 753 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 14: ones out there getting it done.
